DIY Separation

Get legal guidance without full representation.

Need help with your separation but don’t want full legal representation? Want to minimize costs while still getting professional guidance? At Galbraith Family Law, we offer tailored legal support so you can navigate your separation on your terms.

What We Offer:

  • Family Court document creation (advice and strategies only).
  • Separation Agreement creation (advice and strategies only).
  • Advice about negotiating a separation agreement, marriage contract, or cohabitation agreement
  • Advice on how to respond to correspondence from the other side
  • Out-of-court advice and strategies regarding the Family Court process
  • Attending Court with you for a motion or conference, but not the whole court process

If you just need an hour of our time, we will be there to answer your questions and help you create a plan moving forward.

Your lawyer will listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and outline how we can help. Whether in person, by phone, or via video call, we ensure you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process.

Helpful, honest advice—even without a long-term commitment

Charles was excellent. He answered my questions and understood what I was looking for. Even without a guarantee of retaining long-term services, he explained what I could do to minimize my expenses and make the most cost-effective use of his knowledge and experience.
