Newmarket Separation Agreement

Helping Newmarket Families Create Fair and Legally Binding Separation Agreements.

Separation Agreement in Newmarket

Our family lawyers help you prepare a separation agreement that reflects your rights and responsibilities while complying with Ontario’s Family Law Act. Whether you are married or in a common-law relationship, our goal is to make the process as smooth and cost-effective as possible while protecting your future.

Legal Requirements Under Ontario’s Family Law Act

For your separation agreement in Newmarket to be legally binding, it must meet the requirements of the Family Law Act:

  • It must be in writing and signed by both parties.
  • Both partners must make full financial disclosure of their income, property, and debts.
  • The agreement must be voluntary, without pressure or coercion.
  • It must be witnessed by an independent adult.
  • Each party should obtain independent legal advice (ILA) from separate lawyers.

If any of these conditions are not met, the agreement could later be challenged or set aside by a court.
