Focusing On Positive Divorce Solutions

During the divorce process, it is necessary to resolve issues involving children, property and support. Our Oakville family law lawyers always seek to resolve these issues in positive ways, often through the use of collaborative law, mediation and assertive negotiation techniques. We are also prepared to represent you in litigation.

Our goal when representing you will be to enable you to obtain your divorce and resolve related issues efficiently, prudently and with compassion.

Marriage Contracts, Cohabitation Agreements and Separation Agreements

The parties to a marriage or relationship can often take proactive measures to resolve a potential or existing dispute without court intervention. Sweatman Law Firm provides advice and services regarding:

  • Marriage contracts — This document can specify the rights and obligations of spouses regarding property division, children's education and other issues. They can be agreed to before a marriage in a prenuptial agreement or after the marriage through establishing a postnuptial agreement.
  • Cohabitation agreements — These agreements are similar in purpose and function to a marriage contract for couples who are in a committed relationship but not married.
  • Separation agreements — Concluded after a couple separates, these agreements specify matters such as parental custody and access, child and spousal support, and how property is to be divided.
