At MM Law, we’ve seen firsthand that the reasons behind a divorce can vary widely. Some of our clients come to us after experiencing a breakdown in trust. Others have grown apart over time or faced ongoing conflict in their relationship.
Based on our experience handling a range of divorce cases, we help clients navigate the legal grounds found in the Divorce Act.
Understanding the grounds for divorce is key to moving your case forward with clarity and purpose.
Separation is a common ground for divorce in Canada. Under the Divorce Act, spouses must be separated and will have been separated for at least one year at the determination of the divorce proceeding. If the date of separation is contested, our lawyers can help you resolve the issue.
According to the Divorce Act, marriage breakdown may also be established if the spouse against whom the proceeding is brought has committed Adultery in the time since the marriage celebration.
Mental or Physical Cruelty refers to a situation where one spouse has treated the other spouse with physical or mental cruelty of such a kind as to render intolerable the continued cohabitation of the spouses.
An uncontested divorce occurs when both spouses agree on all major issues, such as division of family property, child custody, and support. This type of divorce is typically faster, less expensive, and less stressful, as it avoids court hearings and extensive legal disputes. Our lawyers assist with preparing and filing all of the necessary legal documents.
A contested divorce occurs when one or both spouses disagree on key issues like parenting arrangements, financial support, or how property should be divided. These disagreements may lead to court involvement. This process can be longer, more emotionally challenging, and more costly due to its complexity. Our team can guide and represent our clients through contested divorces, offering strategic legal representation throughout the divorce and separation process.
