FAQ

How long does a contested divorce take in Ontario?

Every case is unique, but a contested divorce typically takes significantly longer than a simple filing, often ranging from several months to over a year depending on the complexity of issues like property division or custody disputes.

Do I need a lawyer for a separation agreement in Brampton?

While you can draft an agreement yourself, having a lawyer ensure the document is “legally binding” and protects your specific rights regarding assets and parenting is essential for long-term security.

What are "unbundled" legal services?

Unbundled services, or limited-scope representation, allow you to hire our firm for specific tasks—such as document review or legal coaching—while you manage other parts of your file yourself to control costs.

How is child support calculated in Brampton, Peel Region?

Child support is primarily determined by the Federal Child Support Guidelines based on the payor’s income and the number of children, though variations may occur for “special or extraordinary” expenses.

What happens to the matrimonial home during a separation?

Under Ontario law, the matrimonial home is subject to specific equalization rules; we help you navigate whether the home should be sold, if one party can buy out the other, and how the value is divided.

What if my divorce is actually simple and uncontested?

If you and your spouse have already reached an agreement on all terms, including children and property, you may qualify for a streamlined process. For more details on our flat-fee services, visit our Divorce Lawyer Brampton page dedicated exclusively to uncontested divorces.
