Toronto Property Division & Equalization Lawyer
Property division done right — business interests, real estate, pensions and cross-border assets.
Ontario does not divide property itself. It equalizes the growth in each spouse's net worth during the marriage, and the spouse with the greater increase pays half the difference.
The calculation is arithmetic. The disputes are about valuation, date of separation, excluded property, and disclosure — which is where careful work changes the outcome materially.
What we handle
- Equalization of net family property
- The matrimonial home and its special treatment
- Business interests and valuations
- Pensions and RRSPs
- Excluded property, gifts and inheritances
- Assets held outside Canada
How we work
We begin with a free consultation to understand your situation and give you an honest read on your options. From there we set a strategy with defined goals, a realistic timeline, and a transparent view of cost. You will always know what is happening in your matter and why.
Most matters resolve without a trial. We negotiate hard where negotiation will work, use mediation or arbitration where it fits, and litigate decisively where the other side will not engage in good faith.
