Understanding Separation in Ontario
There is no such thing as a “legal separation” in Ontario. You are legally separated when one or both parties decide the relationship is over. To obtain a divorce, this involves living “separate and apart,” which doesn’t necessarily mean residing in different homes. Economic circumstances or parenting considerations may lead separated couples to share a residence while maintaining separate lives. Obtaining a divorce is typically the easier part of a separation, often following the resolution of outstanding issues.
The Uncontested Divorce
A simple or uncontested divorce is strictly administrative in nature and may be sought and obtained without a court appearance. It can usually be completed with 4 or 5 months. We offer this service at a flat rate. Please contact us via email or call us at 416-755-9910 to discuss this rate.
Resolving Other Issues Prior to Obtaining a Divorce
If your case involves property division, support, or parenting time, the court will generally require that these matters be resolved before granting a divorce. This ensures that the wellbeing of all parties, particularly any children involved, is considered and protected.
