Make the first conversation useful.

Before you start.
Are married and common-law property rules identical?
No. Ontario’s property rules differ. Do not assume an equal division or entitlement without advice on your circumstances.
Should I transfer or sell property before getting advice?
Discuss proposed transactions and any urgent concern promptly. Existing rights, restrictions or agreements may need review first.
