We focus on resolution, not escalation—avoiding unnecessary conflict and saving you time and money. Our experience allows us to spot problems early and guide you toward cost-effective solutions. We also use technology to streamline communication, minimize admin time, and ensure faster service. We also take on a limited number of cases to ensure every file gets timely, focused attention.

To begin work on your matter, we typically request an initial retainer of $3,000, held in trust. Legal fees and disbursements are billed against this amount as work progresses. Once the retainer is used, a further retainer may be requested. Any unused funds will be returned to you at the conclusion of your file. You will receive monthly detailed invoices showing time spent and services performed. We also make it a priority to discuss your anticipated legal costs with you regularly throughout the process.

Please note that we do not currently accept Legal Aid certificates.

Kim’s standard hourly rate is $325 + HST, billed in six-minute increments. This reflects our experience, responsiveness, and commitment to high-quality legal work. To help manage costs, we delegate appropriate tasks to our trusted law clerks who are billed at $180 + HST per hour. This allows us to work efficiently while keeping your overall legal fees as affordable as possible.

We offer two discounted, flat-rate consultation options: 45-Minute Phone/Zoom Consultation — $150 + HST 60-Minute In-Person Consultation — $300 + HST Some law firms offer free consultations, but as the saying goes—you get what you pay for. Our consultations are one of the best values we offer. For a discounted fee, you receive more than just general information. We take the time to understand your situation, answer key questions, and provide legal advice and strategy tailored to your unique needs. Clients often leave feeling clearer, more confident, and better prepared to take the next step. If you decide to retain us after the consultation, the full consultation fee will be credited toward your initial retainer.

The overall cost of your case will depend on factors such as: The complexity of your matter The number of legal issues involved (e.g. parenting, support, property division) The level of cooperation from the other party The process used to resolve your case (negotiation, mediation, court, etc.)

For certain matters, such as uncontested divorces, we may offer a flat fee starting at $1,500 + HST + disbursements. This option is available when both parties agree on all issues and no negotiation is required.

When negotiation isn’t possible or the matter is urgent or high-conflict, we represent clients in both the Ontario Court of Justice and Superior Court of Justice with strong advocacy.

In this team-based process, both parties and their lawyers commit in writing not to go to court. The focus is on respectful dialogue, full financial disclosure, and child-focused outcomes.

Many family law issues can be resolved through lawyer-assisted negotiation. We help you communicate effectively, explore fair solutions, and finalize agreements without going to court.

An arbitrator—similar to a private judge—hears both sides and makes a legally binding decision. Arbitration can be faster, more private, and more flexible than court.

This hybrid process begins with mediation. If no agreement is reached, the mediator becomes an arbitrator and issues a binding decision. It offers both flexibility and finality

A trained mediator facilitates discussions between both parties to help reach a mutual agreement. We can represent you during mediation or provide legal advice in the background.

We help parents create arrangements that serve their child’s best interest. These include where the child lives (parenting time, formerly known as access) and who makes major decisions (decision-making responsibility, formerly known as custody).

We guide clients through questions of eligibility, duration, and amount of support. Whether you're seeking or responding to a claim, we provide strategic advice and work toward a fair and appropriate resolution

A well-crafted separation agreement clearly sets out each party’s rights and responsibilities and helps prevent future disputes. We help negotiate and prepare agreements that are tailored to your situation, comprehensive in scope, and legally enforceable.

We assist with both contested and uncontested divorces. We help you understand the steps involved and work toward a resolution that protects your rights and allows you to move forward.

Common law partners don’t go through divorce, but still face legal issues like parenting and support. Unlike married couples, property rights can be more limited. We help common law clients understand their rights and resolve matters fairly.

We draft and review prenuptial and cohabitation agreements that help couples set clear expectations and avoid uncertainty in the future.

We act quickly in urgent situations, including cases involving family violence, emergency parenting issues, and restraining orders.

We assist with dividing property and calculating equalization payments when a marriage ends. This includes the matrimonial home, pensions, and business interests.

Relocating with a child—whether within Ontario or internationally—can raise serious legal and parenting challenges. We help clients navigate relocation laws, respond to proposed moves, and develop parenting plans that reflect the child’s best interests across distances.

We provide independent legal advice for separation agreements, marriage contracts, and other documents—ensuring you understand what you're signing and that your interests are protected.

We provide advice and representation on child support matters, including entitlement, amount, enforcement, and requests to change existing support.
