Separation and divorce are hard on families. We help Mississauga clients understand their options, settle where they can, and go to court only when they have to.
We work in English, Hindi and Punjabi, which helps when family members, translators or documents are involved.
How family matters from Mississauga are handled
Mississauga is in Peel Region. Family court cases for Peel residents are heard at the courthouse in Brampton. Many family court cases in Peel require a Mandatory Information Program session on how the family court process works before the case moves ahead. Many matters settle before or without a hearing, through negotiation or mediation.
Common issues we help with
- Separation agreements and what to ask for in financial disclosure
- Uncontested divorce paperwork
- Parenting time and decision-making responsibility
- Child support and spousal support, including an estimate from our calculator
- Property division and the matrimonial home
Families with a connection abroad
Many Mississauga families have property, family or marriages in another country. Where a marriage took place abroad or where children have ties overseas, we look at what Ontario courts will recognise and what documents you need.
