Most couples only learn the legal steps of separation when they are already overwhelmed, and Nadine brings almost two decades of experience to help shed light on the parts most people never think about until it is too late.We explore how binding financial agreements work when they are tested in real life, including why a de facto agreement becomes invalid the moment you marry unless it was drafted to survive the wedding. Nadine breaks down the crucial difference between a parenting plan and a parenting order, and why only one is legally enforceable. She also guides us through the realities of modern families, from step-parents and grandparents to teenagers who now have a stronger voice in their own arrangements.This second instalment goes deeper into the practical realities couples face once separation becomes a legal process, giving you the information most people only discover under pressure.-----TIME STAMPS:00:00 Intro/Hook01:40 Nadine’s background02:20 Components of Binding Financial Agreements03:49 Challenges and Updates in Binding Financial Agreements05:57 Impact of Binding Financial Agreements on Relationships11:05 Parenting Agreements and Orders12:42 Complexities in Blended Families and Grandparental Rights15:58 Alternative Dispute Resolution Methods18:41 Mediation and Its Benefits24:29 Challenges in Collaborative Approaches27:10 Parenting Orders and Child Agency38:05 Conclusion/Outro-----SHOW NOTES LINKShttps://ifdgroup.com.au/ https://doctorbi.com.au/ https://au.linkedin.com/in/mian-bihttps://www.linkedin.com/in/nadine-udorovic-7a7a619/https://nicholeslaw.com.au/-----LISTEN TO THE PODCASTSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/07DS5AxlbgmkuvP6zQGgtN Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/investing-for-doctors-podcast/id1775535608 Amazon Music: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/b9de46bc-e29d-4402-9e9e-959a3a5dc8da/investing-for-doctors-podcast -----FIND US HEREWebsite: https://ifdgroup.com.au/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/investingfordoctors Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/investingfordoctors -----DISCLAIMERThe information provided in this podcast is for general purposes only and should not be considered personal advice.
