But do you?
You need a divorce lawyer if you need legal advice. You should have a lawyer if you are going to court and do not want to represent yourself.
You do not require a divorce lawyer to:
- Divide your matrimonial property (i.e. assets/liabilities)
- Reach an agreement with your spouse
- Have an assisted discussion with your spouse to consider options
- Determine child support
- Negotiate spousal support
- Determine what is in the best interests of your children
- Reach an agreement on the parenting and the involvement and roles of each parent
- Review your financial options (divorce financial planning & analysis)
- Prepare and file your divorce paperwork
In fact, the BC government encourages all couples to settle matters out of court and by mutual agreement, thus saving high cost lawyers’ fees (remember that one lawyer can’t represent both of you.) And like a business deal, we recommend each party gets independent legal advice after the deals have been made.
Our Kelowna divorce mediation firm is dedicated to making the divorce process fair, efficient, less adversarial, and less costly for you. Divorce is about family and individual restructuring. There are many factors to consider which go beyond just the legal issues – especially when children are involved. We are an experienced impartial third party dedicated to helping you and your spouse reach an agreement which fits your situation. We are an established, local divorce mediation firm, and we’ve been helping couples since 2009.
Our proven system takes you through a process that covers the four main areas of separation: property division, child support, spousal support and parenting. Our expert staff will guide you and your spouse through the difficult conversations necessary to reach agreement on these topics, while helping you to keep your emotions in check and keep you focused on the future.
