Few areas of the law affect a person as personally as family law matters. The lawyers at Blackburn English offer a full range of legal services in this regard. These include the following:

	Division of property including pensions
	Partner and spousal support
	Separation agreements
	Divorce
	Child support, access, and day-to-day care arrangements
	Applications to amend child support, access, and care arrangements due to changes in circumstance
	Adoptions
	Guardianship applications

If negotiations can bring about a satisfactory resolution, we provide advice and prepare the required agreements. If litigation is necessary to obtain a resolution, we provide representation through the process. Our lawyers also work proactively to prepare prenuptial agreements (pre marriage), marriage contracts (prior to or during marriage), and cohabitation agreements for common law and same sex couples (prior to or during living together).

Blackburn English’s lawyers are pleased to serve greater Halifax, Nova Scotia, including Enfield, Bedford, Sackville, Mount Uniacke, Waverley and Dartmouth.
