Frequently asked questions
How much does a first consultation cost?
Call the office on (604) 773-4392 and we will tell you the current consultation fee before you book. The first conversation is about your situation and your realistic options, so you can decide what to do next without committing to anything.
Do you offer service in Punjabi and Hindi?
Yes. The firm provides service in English, Punjabi and Hindi. Tell us which language you prefer when you call and we will arrange it.
Do we have to go to court?
Most family matters resolve by agreement or in mediation. Court is used where an issue cannot be resolved any other way, or where an urgent order is needed to protect a person or a child.
How long does a separation take to resolve?
It depends on how much is agreed. A file where both people disclose their finances and want an agreement can be settled in weeks. A contested file with a business or hidden assets takes considerably longer.
What is the difference between a separation and a divorce?
Separation is the end of the relationship and it starts the clock on property division and the one year period for divorce. A divorce is a court order ending the marriage itself, and it is usually the last step rather than the first.
Do common law couples have the same rights as married couples?
Largely yes in British Columbia. Living in a marriage like relationship for at least two continuous years makes you a spouse under the Family Law Act, with claims to family property and spousal support. Note the limitation period runs from the date of separation.
