“When I went through my own divorce, I wanted to achieve a peaceful resolution (I have three children with my first wife, so I wanted to be able to co-parent with her amicably), in a timely manner (getting a resolution quickly was important) and cost-effectively (I did not want to waste money on the resolution of issues, I would rather spend my money on my children). Of course, I wanted to ensure my rights were respected as well, and here at Galbraith Family Law our whole team is there to do just that.

A fear of many parents is they won’t be able to maintain their relationship with their kids after separation. The answer is that most parents are able to maintain strong relationships with their kids after separation. In fact, some are able to strengthen their relationships with their kids because they are focused solely on their children when they are with them.
A Family Specialist is trained to handle the needs of children, especially those whose parents are going through a divorce. They help you and your spouse develop a parenting plan that best suits your children. They help develop an agreement on the time your children will spend with each of you on a regular basis and over holidays. However, they also do much more.
A Family Specialist can help you develop a time-sharing arrangement that works for your family and recognizes your child’s personal and developmental needs. Usually the Family Specialist is part of the Collaborative Process which is an effective way or resolving issues without having to go to court.
When a couple divorces, the spouse with the higher income sometimes pays money to help support the spouse with the lower income. This is what we call paying "spousal support".
During divorce proceedings, clients often assume that their home has to be sold and many questions arise. Should you stay in your home? Can you manage the mortgage payments? Is it better to start over? Selling may seem like the logical choice, but there are other options to explore.
Do you feel like your world has been turned upside down because of your separation? Do feel like everything in your life is changing?
That’s normal. Most people going through a separation feel like everything has come unglued and is crashing down on them.
