Martin & Hillyer is a full service law firm
We provide experience in the following areas:
Family Law embodies legal issues arising from marital breakdown, child custody and access, child and spousal support, divorce and the division of family property upon separation or divorce.
Family Law also includes negotiation and preparation of Cohabitation Agreements, Pre-Nuptial Agreements and Marriage Contracts as well as Children's Aid Society matters.
Different laws apply to common law relationships.
A Family Law lawyer may also provide mediation services to assist with negotiations and the settlement of issues arising from marital breakdown.
Our family law lawyers also practice Collaborative Law. The Collaborative Practice involves the parties reaching an Agreement without going to court in a setting of open, honest exchange of information and expression of needs and expectations.
In the event negotiations break down, our lawyers are also experienced family law litigators who will guide you through the formal court process if necessary.
