If you are contemplating divorce, received divorce documents or are in the middle of custody battle, you need to see a family lawyer who can help you understand the divorce process and represent your interests at every stage of your divorce.
Some of the issues that you may need to deal with when getting a divorce include the equalization of assets, child support, spousal support, child custody and access. These issues can be very complex and failing to understand the law can affect you greatly in the long run. For instance, if you choose to represent yourself, you may end up paying a lot more in support and for a longer period of time. Thus, although it may seem that you are saving money in legal fees in the short term, in the long term you may end up paying two, three or four times the amount of money that you should have paid to settle the issues surrounding your divorce.
It does not have to be expensive or take a long time to settle all the issues surrounding your separation. You can reach an agreement with your spouse regarding the equalization of your assets, child support, spousal support, child custody and access. The specifics of the agreement can then be set out in a separation agreement. However, it would be advisable to speak with a family lawyer before you negotiate the terms of a separation agreement. In this way, you can make sure that you understand your rights and obligations before you negotiate the terms of the agreement. Similarly, it would be advisable to ask a family lawyer to prepare the separation agreement to make sure that it is valid in your jurisdiction.
But if your spouse is unwilling to reach an agreement out of court, a family lawyer can help you prepare all the necessary documents to answer your spouse’s court application and represent you in court.
At Divorce Lawyer Toronto and Bonilla Legal Services we can help you negotiate the terms of a separation agreement, draft a binding separation agreement, file a divorce application with the court, answer a current application, prepare your case conference brief, financial statement, settlement conference brief, trial management conference brief, motion materials, offers to settle and trial record among other things. Most importantly, we help ensure that you understand the divorce process and that you have control over the most important decisions you need to make.
