Lawyers are brought in at two stages in the Fairway Process^TM.  First, matrimonial lawyers are brought in to educate divorcing couples independently during the What is the Law^TM Seminar step.  Lawyers are retained by the clients during the final step to ensure the clients get independent legal advice and prepare official legal papers for divorce.  Also Fairway Divorce Solutions encourages clients to retain lawyers during the process when legal advice is required.
 

Fairway Divorce Solution has worked with couples throughout Canada and parts of the United States.  If one or both parties are unable to meet in person, they are engaged by telephone from beginning to end.  No step is missed and no one person goes uninformed.

It is mission critical that both parties agree to engage Fairway Divorce Solutions to obtain maximum results.  It is also important to note that once a divorcing couple chooses to engage Fairway Divorce Solutions, its team initially walks each party through the process independently, helping to ensure both parties are empowered decision makers.  Fairway Divorce Solutions finally brings both parties together during the Fairway Negotiated Resolution Plan^TM to conclude the process.
 

It is never too late.  Fairway Divorce Solutions has a number of couples who are frustrated with the cost and emotional strain of using lawyers.  The Fairway Divorce Solutions team advises divorcing couples to research and understand divorce options and choose a process that is designated to meet the needs of both parties and their children.

At Fairway Divorce Solutions, we use a team of experts who help create a win-win resolution.  Once a couple engages Fairway Divorce Solutions, senior negotiators/mediators and advisors with financial expertise ensure each party moves through The Fairway Process smoothly.  While there is an expert team working together to find resolve for each party and family dynamic, there is one negotiator/mediator who is the primary contact assigned to the couple.

A separation agreement is a legally binding contract between spouses (married or common-law) or ex-spouses setting out the terms of their relationship after separation (or the decision to separate). This agreement often deals with how property (and debts) will be divided between the spouses, spousal support, child support, child access and other issues. 

A divorce is a method of terminating a marriage contract between two individuals; your divorce will give each of you the legal right to marry someone else.

Not always.  Child support may continue even after the child is 18 if he or she is enrolled in high school or post secondary education or if he or she is unable to become self-sufficient due to disability.  Generally, if the child is still in school there is a requirement that the child be attending in full time studies and making passing grades. 

It is wise to avoid making any major purchases during the divorce.  Further, until the divorce judgment is granted, any property purchased is subjected to a claim by your spouse, even if it is purchased in your sole name after your separation.  You should talk with your lawyer about the timing of this purchase during your settlement.
