September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, a day to honour survivors of residential schools, the children who never returned home, the families and communities who continue to live with the lasting impacts of the residential school system.

Truth and reconciliation begins with listening, learning and understanding the history that brought us here.

Today we encourage our community to take time to learn from Indigenous voices and reflect on what reconciliation means in our workplaces, communities and country.

Remember. Learn. Listen. Reflect.

Spousal support isn’t always as simple as “we were married, so I get support”

When a relationship ends, whether spousal support may apply can depend on several factors, including the length of the relationship, whether you have children together, and the financial circumstances of both partners.

And importantly, spousal support can be relevant to both married and unmarried couples.

If you are separating, understanding your rights and responsibilities early can make the process clearer and help you make informed decisions on your next steps.

If you are navigating or have questions about spousal support, we’re here to help.

You wouldn’t ask your mechanic to perform surgery. 🚗 ❌🩺

You wouldn’t ask your vet to do your taxes. 🐶❌💰

So why take chances with important legal matters?

Whether you’re buying a home, creating a Will, settling and estate, or navigating a separation, having the right professional in your corner matters.

Legal issues can be complicated. Getting guidance doesn’t have to be.

Just because your name is the only one on the title doesn’t mean you hold all the cards. 🃏🏠

In Ontario, if the property is considered a “matrimonial home,” you cannot simply sell it or refinance it without your spouse’s consent—even if they aren’t on the deed.

Real estate law gets incredibly tricky when family law is involved. Don’t make a move without talking to the experts first!
