Family Law

Family law is about more than what happens with separated families. Planning ahead is also important to many families. We can help protect your interests by preparing a Cohabitation, Prenuptial or Marital Agreement specially tailored to your needs.  We approach the negotiation and preparation of relationship agreements with thought, care and tact.   We want you to feel comfortable, informed and confident with the choices you make now, and their future impact.

Relationship agreements are not one size fits all.  Understanding the big picture, forethought, and having attention to detail are important components of the negotiation and drafting process.  You want an agreement which will stand the test of time.  Because our team includes seasoned litigators who have successfully both upheld and set aside relationship agreements drafted by others when the relationship has ended, we have the knowledge of how to draft agreements that will help to carry out your intentions and avoid future unintended ramifications. 

We realize that family breakdown and associated disputes involve winding up the most intimate of relationships, and that issues stemming from the breakdown of the family unit can have far reaching effects, both emotionally and financially. We also understand how non-legal issues can greatly impact the ability of the parties to resolve their legal issues. We will assist you to sort out the immediate issues, and explain to you how your decisions now may impact you, negatively or positively, in the future.
