Dividing property, preserving peace of mind.
Family property includes most assets and debts acquired by spouses during a relationship and is subject to equal division under the Family Law Act. This can include real estate, bank accounts, investments, pensions, and other financial assets, as well as certain debts accumulated during the relationship. Understanding what qualifies as family property, and how it should be valued and divided, is a crucial step toward a fair separation or divorce.
How we can help:
- Identifying and categorizing family property and debts
- Valuing assets accurately, including real estate, businesses, and investments
- Negotiating fair division through mediation or settlement agreements
- Drafting enforceable property agreements that comply with British Columbia law
- Litigating in family court when necessary to protect your rights
We provide clear, strategic guidance to help clients navigate the financial and legal complexities of property division. Whether your separation is amicable or contested, our goal is to achieve a fair, equitable resolution while protecting your interests and minimizing stress.
