What's the difference between contested and uncontested divorce?

In Ontario, a contested divorce involves spouses who cannot agree on key issues, such as property division, or spousal support, leading to a legal dispute settled in court. An uncontested divorce occurs when both parties agree on all terms, making the process quicker and less costly.

What are the legal grounds for divorce?

In Canada, divorce is regulated by the federal government and the Divorce Act recognizes three primary grounds for divorce: one year of separation, adultery, and cruelty.

The most common and straightforward is a year of separation. Adultery and cruelty are also valid grounds but are typically very complex cases because they require proof.

My situation is complicated, how aggressive are your lawyers?

Our lawyers work to find resolutions outside of litigation to save time, cost, and maintain relationships as much as possible. That said, we are fully prepared to take an aggressive stance when necessary. Our lawyers are not only skilled negotiators but also fierce litigators who are ready to fight for your interests in court if required. We believe in a balanced approach, combining assertiveness with diplomacy, to ensure your interests are protected while minimizing potential risks.
