What family law lawyers in London help with

Family law in Ontario: what to know

Ontario's Limitations Act, 2002 sets a basic two-year limitation period for most civil claims, with important exceptions. Speak to a lawyer early so that a deadline does not run out.

Divorce is governed by the federal Divorce Act, while property division and some other matters are decided under provincial law, so both matter in most separations.

How to choose a family law lawyer in London

  1. Confirm the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with the Law Society of Ontario.
  2. Ask how much of their practice is family law, and how recent their experience is with cases like yours.
  3. Compare the Google rating together with the number of reviews, not the rating alone.
  4. Read recent reviews for comments on communication and responsiveness.
  5. Ask for the fee structure in writing before you sign, including what is billed separately.
  6. Meet with more than one firm if the matter is large, and trust the one that explains your options clearly.
