Excellent, excellent office! So lucky to have come across them, saved us so much money, so much unnecessary acrimony and anguish, recommend it to anyone who must turn a new leaf and is not quarrelsome, small-minded, vindictive, and petty. Have recommended it already, in fact, and will do again, any time a chance presents itself.

My experience with One Family Law was positive throughout the process. Melissa kept us on track, focusing on the important, necessary steps, making the best out of an uncomfortable situation. Our divorce was finalized within 5 months of starting the process. All support staff were amazing and patient with my many questions as well. My only negative takeaway was that sometimes it would take some time to get a call back, but i understand being a pilot project, there may have been limitations in staffing etc. I would do it all again, if I had to.

Melissa, Cody and Ashley are amazing. They work hard to remain unbiased and yet help advocate for what is best for everyone. They are great communicators and help with making the separation/divorce easier to navigate.

Key Questions Answered

What is One Family Law?

We are a law firm offering couples a new way to separate or divorce. One couple jointly retains a single family lawyer to guide them through the process of separation with sound legal advice, minimizing conflict and cost along the way.

In the traditional system, each party retains their own legal representation to advocate for them. While we understand this is sometimes necessary, we believe that by choosing to approach this transitional period together we can deliver a better outcome for everyone.

If you are looking to transition through the separation process with minimal conflict between yourselves and to receive sound legal advice that sets you both up to move forward, then we are for you.

Yes. By jointly retaining a lawyer you are sharing the fee for one lawyer instead of two. Our streamlined process is designed to eliminate the costly back and forth meetings between lawyers and to simplify the process of divorce so you can move through this transitional time effectively.

There is certainly cross-over as we will address all aspects of your separation; parenting, property, support payments and future planning but unlike mediation, once we have a separation agreement, we can sign off on it and file it for you.

One Family Law is one of several options you have for Alternative Dispute Resolution. If you are not successful with us then we will help you transition to another option like Collaborative Practice, Mediation, Arbitration or Litigation.
