Marriage Contracts & Cohabitation Agreements
A marriage contract, one of three types of domestic contracts in Ontario, is similar to a “prenup” and can be made before or during marriage. Cohabitation agreements are for couples living together without marrying. Both must be written, signed, and witnessed. They outline each party's financial rights and obligations, including property division and support, but cannot determine custody or access to children.
Collaborative Law
Collaborative law is an alternative divorce method where both parties agree to resolve their issues amicably without going to court. Each party hires a specially trained collaborative lawyer, and the focus is on open communication and mutual agreement. This process aims to reduce stress and foster respectful, constructive negotiations, leading to a final resolution that suits both parties.
Divorce Mediation
Mediation involves both clients getting together with a trained, qualified mediator to resolve their differences and find common ground in a respectful, creative manner. If the couple cannot resolve all of their differences, they can go to court or ask the mediator to act as an arbitrator and rule on whatever has not been decided. Unlike the collaborative divorce process, you can keep the same lawyer through mediation and litigation.

Mr. Gary Stern left no stone unturned to help me, the outcome was better than I expected, he believed in justice, knew that I was treated unfairly, and fought for me, like it's his own family suffering. I will never stop praying for you and your staff, the respect and kindness I received was beyond my imagination.
