Family
Law
Our Family lawyers focus on the sensitive issues surrounding
separation and divorce. In addition to appearing before
all Manitoba Courts, some have special training as
mediators and offer mediation services as an alternative
method of resolving the issues related to the family
breakdown.
Our lawyers regularly advise and assist our clients
with respect to the dissolution of marriages and common-law
relationships. We negotiate or litigate all issues
arising in the family law context. Our firm advises
clients in family property valuations, accountings
of family and commercial interests and apportionment
of property, structuring equalization payments, security
concerns and insurance plans, spousal and child support,
child custody arrangements guardianship and adoption.
We are frequently involved in preparing or providing
advice regarding co-habitation and pre-nuptial and
post-nuptial agreements and estate planning issues
that relate to such agreements.
This practice area requires the objectivity and sensitivity
of family law specialists along with the expertise
and experience of a full-service law firm. Our firm
has one of the foremost family law practices in the
Westman area, distinguished by the support of leading
lawyers in the firm’s other practice areas,
including tax, real estate, corporate and estate planning
and trusts.
