Spousal support lawyers in Dollard-des-Ormeaux

Money questions are often the hardest part of a separation. Whether you may need support or may be asked to pay it, a lawyer who regularly handles spousal support can help you understand where you stand, prepare your financial information and negotiate an arrangement you can live with.

Where spousal support cases are heard

In Quebec, spousal support disputes are heard by the Superior Court of Québec, at the courthouse of the judicial district where the case is filed. The same court handles requests to change or end an existing order. A lawyer can tell you which courthouse and which procedure apply to you, and whether an agreement approved by the court could avoid a hearing altogether.

In person or remote

Many lawyers offer consultations by video or phone as well as in person, so you are not limited to offices in Dollard-des-Ormeaux. Check each profile for the formats and languages offered.
