Why are you getting a divorce?
Children often want to understand the reason behind the divorce. Explain
simply, 'Mom and Dad have decided that we can be better parents and happier
people if we live separately. This decision is not because of anything you did.
Where will I live?
Children need to know about their living arrangements. Tell them, 'You will
spend weekdays with Mom and weekends with Dad,' or 'We will have two homes, and
you will have your own room in each.
Will I still see both of you?
Reassure them, 'Yes, you will spend time with both of us. We will make sure
you get to see each of us regularly.
Is it my fault?
It’s crucial to
reassure your children that the divorce is not their fault. Say, 'No, this is
not your fault at all. This is a decision between Mom and Dad, and we both love
you very much.
Will you get back together?
Be honest but gentle: 'We have decided that living separately is best for
our family. We will always work together to take care of you, but we will not
be getting back together.

During a divorce in Ontario, both
spouses have equal rights to the matrimonial home, regardless of whose name is
on the title. This remains the case until the divorce is finalized or a
settlement is reached.
The entire value of the matrimonial
home as of the separation date is considered in asset division, not just the
increase in value during the marriage.
In certain cases, a court may grant
one spouse exclusive possession of the home temporarily, impacting both
parties’ living situations and financial planning.
In Ontario, asset division aims to
equalize the net family property acquired during the marriage, with real estate
often being a significant component.
Accurate valuation of real estate as
of the separation date is essential, along with consideration of associated
debts like mortgages.
If one spouse takes full ownership
of a jointly held property, legal steps must be taken to transfer the title.
Facing a divorce in Ontario? Real
estate division can be complex. Engage a skilled Toronto divorce lawyer early
to ensure all aspects are thoroughly addressed for a fair outcome.

Planning to tie the knot in Ontario? Understanding the legal requirements
for a valid marriage
First, the contract must be in writing and signed by both parties, witnessed
by someone else. This ensures the agreement is formally recognized under
Ontario law.
Full financial disclosure is a must. Each party needs to be open about their
finances. While it’s not mandatory, getting independent legal advice is highly
recommended.
A marriage contract can set terms for property division and spousal support,
tailoring them to your unique needs and wishes.
Remember, issues like child custody and support cannot be predetermined in
your contract. These are decided based on what's best for the child at the time
of separation or divorce.
