Applying the law to your property rights

Asset protection or debt management is a typical concern of spouses upon separation. Most spouses are worried about the preservation of their wealth or avoiding major financial loss upon separation. When people ask how they can protect their assets before divorce, the answer is multi-layered.

In Ontario the law for property division is called Equalization of Net Family Property. Nothing can provide greater advance protection from the loss of assets through divorce than a Marriage Contract, before marriage or even during cohabitation.

Protect your assets from divorce

Most divorce settlements are reached outside of court. The process starts with the exchange of financial information and the negotiation of a divorce settlement and ending with a signed Separation Agreement. This then is followed by an application for an Uncontested Divorce.

Divorce can be a long and difficult process. So being prepared early is crucial, especially for those that have complicated financial holdings.This is why expert divorce advice and strong legal representation is absolutely necessary.
