Pitt Meadows Asset Division Lawyers

Asset Division

At our firm, our family lawyers have experience in dividing assets during the divorce process. We work to ensure that you receive what you are rightfully owed. Dividing property can be a complex process, but by thoroughly evaluating what each party owns individually and jointly, we can work towards a fair outcome. In Pitt Meadows, British Columbia it is especially important to consider the historical value of pre-owned property when determining the distribution of assets following a separation.


Divorce in Pitt Meadows

If you need to obtain a divorce order as part of your family law case in Pitt Meadows, we can assist you. While a divorce order may be necessary in some situations, it is often not the first priority after a relationship ends. Instead, there may be more pressing concerns that require immediate attention, such as financial security and arrangements for any children involved. If a divorce order is needed, we can help you navigate the process.

Child support lawyers in Pitt Meadows

Child Support

Our Pitt Meadows Family Law and child support lawyers can help you protect your child’s right to adequate financial support. It is widely accepted that children are entitled to have the financial resources of both parents available to support them as they grow and develop. While there are many online resources that can provide an estimate of the basic monthly child support obligation under the Federal Child Support Guidelines, our lawyers can help you navigate the process and ensure that your child’s rights are protected.


Spousal Support

With a wealth of experience in Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines, we can provide clear, easy-to-understand advice about how spousal support will affect your life after separation. Our team is dedicated to helping you navigate this complex area of law and achieve a favourable outcome for your situation.

Co-Parenting Responsibilities

We are dedicated to safeguarding children from the harmful consequences of divorce and will collaborate with child experts, physicians, and therapists to ensure that your perspective and your child’s perspective are considered during this highly emotional process.


Premarital and Cohabitation Agreements

Our Pitt Meadows lawyers can help you determine if a premarital or cohabitation agreement is the right choice for you. These agreements are useful for outlining financial expectations in the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as separation or divorce. Every couple has different needs, so it’s worth considering the benefits of having a written agreement in place. Rather than asking “do I need an agreement?”, you may want to consider “why wouldn’t I have an agreement?”

Pitt Meadows family law, handled from New Westminster

Pitt Meadows sits north of the Fraser near the Pitt River, about a 25 to 35 minute drive from our New Westminster office at 26 Fourth Street over the Pitt River Bridge. Onyx Law Group doesn’t have a Pitt Meadows office, so we meet local clients in New Westminster or handle the work remotely when that’s the easier path during a separation.

Pitt Meadows family files are usually opened at the New Westminster Supreme Court registry, with the Port Coquitlam registry a nearer option since 2025. Spousal support is one issue that comes up often. The Family Law Act sets out who may be entitled to support and on what basis, whether to make up for how the relationship shaped each person’s finances or to help a spouse work toward self-sufficiency, and the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines give ranges for amount and duration. Those guidelines are advisory rather than binding, so the figures still turn on the facts of each marriage.
