Can you change the locks the day you file for divorce? Not so fast.

In this video, Gagan Sekhon explains why filing for divorce does not automatically give one spouse the right to lock the other out of the family home, and what factors may affect your situation.

Thinking about separation or divorce? Watch the video, and if you have questions about your specific circumstances, reach out to our team.

Can you force your spouse to leave the house during a separation in Ontario?

It’s one of the most common questions family lawyers hear, especially when tensions at home are high and emotions are running even higher.

In this video, Abir Hassan explains what your legal rights may look like when separating, including why the answer is often more complicated than people expect.

If you’re navigating separation and feeling stuck in an unhealthy living situation, understanding your options is an important first step.

“What if my ex is self-employed and hiding income to pay less support?”

It’s a question many people ask, and the answer is more nuanced than you might think. In this video, Andrew White explains how income can be reviewed in self-employment situations, what courts may look at, and the steps available when financial disclosure doesn’t tell the full story.

If support calculations don’t seem accurate, getting clear legal advice early can make a real difference.

Does cheating affect your divorce in Ontario?

Family lawyer Abir Hassan breaks down what infidelity actually means in family law, and whether it impacts spousal support, child support, or your parenting arrangement.

Short answer, Ontario courts don’t base decisions on who was “at fault.” What matters is the best interests of the child and each party’s financial situation.

If you’re wondering whether a cheating spouse pays more, or how it could affect your parenting arrangement or settlement, this is a solid place to start.

Money conversations during a separation can get messy fast… and what you don’t share can come back to bite you later.

Financial disclosure isn’t just paperwork, it’s what determines support, property division, and whether your agreement actually holds up. Miss something (even by accident), and you could be reopening everything down the road.

We broke it all down on the blog, what you need to disclose, why it matters, and how to avoid costly mistakes.

If you’re navigating a separation or divorce in Ontario, this is one of those reads you don’t skip.

Is your inheritance safe from your ex?

If you’ve received, or expect to receive, an inheritance, this is something you’ll want to understand before assumptions turn into surprises.
