Canadian Child Support Lawyers

• All Canadian parents are legally required to
  financially support their dependent children. It
  isthe childs right. When parents live together,
  shared responsibility is understood. When
  parents separate or divorce or if they never
  married and simply live apart, the children
  usually reside most of the time with one parent.

• The other parent, thus,is required to financially
  support the children. In the late 1990s, Canada
  established a set of Guidelines that set forth
  basic child support amounts, the idea for which
  was to reduce conflict, encourage resolution, and
  ensure equal treatment of spouses. In most
  cases, the parents simply followed the Guidelines
  and agreed upon support payments. There are
  instances, however, where certain disagreements
  arise and one parent may need legal
  representation and/or the courts intervention.
  The non-custodial parent may not be issuing
  payments, parents may be sharing custody, a
  parent may have an undue hardship (debts,
  disability), one parent may be wrongly using
  visitation to affect support, etc. There are so
  many possible situations. Hiring an attorney
  allows the parent to avoid dealing with the other
  parent and lets the process proceed more easily.

• Choosing alawyeris always confusing and hard,as
  such a task most comes during difficult times.
  You should always select a lawyer who specializes
  in the field in which your matter pertains, as
  experience and knowledge count. As well, your
  lawyer must be licensed to practice in the
  province in which your matter is situated. You
  can identify many lawyers in Canada who
  specialize in family law through a simple
  Internet search. But, continue to search each
  prospect further. You might find articles or
  posts the lawyer wrote or even articles and posts
  previous clients or associates wrote. Either
  way, you may learn something vital about their
  philosophy, communication skills, and demeanor.

• Then, go even further. Call the lawyers office
  and explain that you are looking for possible
  representation. Did the receptionist speak to
  you professionally and pleasantly?This is also
  very important. A lawyers staff should treat
  all clients with respect and dignity. Ask for
  references and a copy of the firms retainer.
  Call the references and find out whether other
  clients were satisfied with the lawyers
  services. Finally, review the retainer to see if
  you can afford the firms services. These steps
  may seem arduous, but you want to be comfortable
  and satisfied with a lawyer you retain and pay.

• The likely outcome of any family law matter is
  difficult to predict, but hiring an attorney with
  whom you feel comfortable, believe has your best
  interest, and feel is putting your best interests
  first ensures the best possible conclusion and
  leaves you feeling that every effort was put
  forth on your behalf.
