Divorce and Separation

Parenting & Decision Making

Navigating child care schedules, care and visitation schedules can be overwhelming and emotional. When issues arise, the courts will always keep the best interests of the child first and foremost in their decision-making. The lawyers at O’Marra and Elliott offer effective negotiation strategies, help set reasonable expectations, and, above all else, keep your children’s wellbeing the main priority.

Property, Asset, Debt Division

Disputes can arise easily and escalate quickly when property must be divided in a divorce. Our lawyers will work with you to ensure there is an equitable distribution of marital property and debts. If you are anticipating going through a divorce that includes property and valuable assets, you need an experienced property division lawyer at O’Marra and Elliott who knows how to get the results.

Child and Spousal Support

While child and spousal support guidelines offer guidance, calculations are based on multiple factors and no two cases are the same. Whether you are paying or receiving support, we will advocate for your best interests and the best interests of your children.

Domestic Contracts i.e. Separation Agreements and Cohabitation Agreements

Cohabitation/Marriage and Pre-Nuptial Agreements. A properly designed Domestic Contract can accomplish a great deal to protect specific property interests, specify arrangements for spousal support, and avoid confusion regarding the assets that could make up part of the property for possible division in a divorce or breakdown of a (common law) relationship. To stand up in court, a cohabitation agreement must meet certain standards that our experienced lawyers will ensure in your personally tailored Domestic Contract.

Wills and Power of Attorney

A will is a legal document created while you are alive but used upon your death to pass your assets to your named heirs. A trained estate planning lawyer can take all of the guesswork out of drafting a will so that you can be more confident that the document will hold up in court. A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that enables you to appoint one or more people to manage your legal, healthcare-related or financial affairs when you are unable or unavailable to do so yourself. Work with an estate planning lawyer you can trust to protect your best interests and the future welfare of your family.
