Straight to lawyer, get the $7,300 sorted and thank you stars and move on. The $7,300 will be a lot less then cost if decides to take it further. She might not end up with anymore, but the costs to decide that will.
Had a client who split from his partner of 4-5years defacto for about 2-3 he owned the PPOR and an IP both in his own name, she asked for $10,000 he got legal advise and they suggested this was best as will be cheaper. Got the $10,000 together but by then someone else had got into her ear that she would be entitled to more and didn't take the $10,000.
