- Custody and access arrangements
- Marriage contracts and cohabitation agreements

Property Division and Complex Assets
When relationships end, dividing assets fairly requires careful analysis—particularly when the matrimonial property includes businesses, professional practices, pensions, or real estate holdings. We work with financial experts and valuators to ensure our clients receive their proper entitlements under Ontario’s Family Law Act.
Intersection with Estate Matters
Family law issues often intersect with estate planning and administration. We advise clients on dependant support claims against estates, challenges to wills that may affect family members, and the family law implications of inheritances and estate distributions.
Whether pursuing negotiated resolutions or litigation, we focus on achieving outcomes that protect our clients’ interests while minimizing unnecessary conflict.
