Below are the family law services we offer in Delta:
Separation and Divorce Lawyers
Separation and divorce can be overwhelming, both legally and emotionally. Our divorce lawyers are committed to helping you resolve your family law issues in a way that protects your rights, supports your well-being, and lays the groundwork for a stable future. We provide strategic guidance at every stage, including mediation, negotiation, and court proceedings.
Uncontested Divorce
In an uncontested divorce, both parties agree on key issues such as parenting time, property division, and support. Our team can prepare all necessary documentation and ensure your divorce proceeds smoothly, efficiently, and in full compliance with the Divorce Act and BC family law.
Contested Divorce
If there is disagreement on issues like child custody, property division, or support, the divorce becomes contested. In these cases, our lawyers work to protect your legal rights, advocate for your interests, and pursue fair outcomes through negotiation or litigation where necessary.
Common-Law Separation Lawyers
Couples in common-law relationships often face the same legal issues as married couples when they separate. Under BC law, if you have lived together for at least two years, or for less time but share a child, you may be entitled to spousal support or a share of property and debt. Our lawyers help common-law spouses understand and assert their legal rights during separation.
Child Custody, Parenting Time, and Child Support
Children’s best interests are at the heart of every parenting dispute. We help parents create practical parenting arrangements that reflect each child’s needs, while also ensuring that support obligations are fair and legally enforceable. Whether you need to establish custody and support for the first time or modify an existing order, our lawyers are here to help.
Guardianship Lawyers
In British Columbia, guardianship determines who has legal decision-making power for a child. Our lawyers assist clients in understanding and asserting their guardianship rights, especially during separation or in high-conflict parenting matters.
Separation Agreements
A separation agreement is a legally binding contract that outlines how you and your former partner will divide property, manage parenting time, and address financial support. Our lawyers draft and review separation agreements that reflect your intentions and protect your future, helping you avoid court whenever possible.
Prenuptial Agreements
A prenuptial agreement can provide clarity and security before marriage by outlining how property, debts, and spousal support will be handled if the relationship ends. Our family lawyers help clients create fair and enforceable agreements tailored to their specific financial and personal circumstances.
Spousal Support
Spousal support is not automatic in British Columbia. It depends on several factors, including the roles each partner played during the relationship and the financial impact of the separation. At Legalbird, we help clients understand whether support is legally appropriate and what amount and duration may apply.
Whether you are pursuing or opposing a claim for spousal support, our team will guide you through the process with a focus on resolution. We prioritize fairness and long-term financial stability for our clients, using negotiation, mediation, or litigation as needed.

The Family Law Process in BC
Initial Family Consultation – Your Story, Your Goals
Our process begins with a focused, fact-finding consultation. You’ll share what matters most, we’ll gather the essential details, and then we develop a transparent, tailored action plan grounded in BC’s Family Law Act and local court rules.
Clear, Step-by-Step Case Management
Your family law matter will follow a structured legal process guided by the BC Family Law Act and the rules of the Provincial or Supreme Court in Delta. From the outset, we ensure you understand what issues are being addressed, what stage you are in, and what to expect next. Our child-focused approach is grounded in the “best interests of the child” test, helping reduce uncertainty and minimize unnecessary stress throughout your case.
Resolution Strategy Tailored to Your Needs
We tailor our resolution approach to your unique situation, choosing the path that best protects your interests and goals:
- Negotiation – A private, informal way to reach a fair agreement. Both sides share complete and honest financial and legal information, as required by Section 5 of the Family Law Act (Duty to Disclose).
- Mediation – Facilitated discussion emphasizing the best interests of any children, with a neutral mediator helping you create a customized, durable parenting plan
- Litigation – If an agreement isn’t possible, we advocate for your rights in court. We present evidence and argue your interests, always focusing on BC’s best‑interests framework.
Protecting the Child’s Best Interests
In child‑related matters—guardianship, parenting time, relocation, contact—everything we do centers on protecting your child’s physical, emotional, and psychological well‑being, per the Act’s statutory factors. With us, you’ll have guidance every step of the way.
Ongoing Support & Final Orders
Your case doesn’t end with an agreement or court order. At Legalbird, we stay with you beyond resolution to ensure court orders are implemented smoothly, parenting plans remain practical, and child or spousal support adjustments are handled as circumstances evolve. We can also assist with registration of orders across provinces, variations, or enforcement actions if needed—especially under the Interjurisdictional Support Orders Act or Family Maintenance Enforcement Program (FMEP).

Your Rights and Obligations Under BC Family Law
Understanding your legal rights and your responsibilities is essential when navigating family law in British Columbia. We help you clarify questions like:
What are my rights if my partner and I never legally married?
Under the BC Family Law Act, common-law partners who have lived together for at least two years, or who share a child, may have the same rights as married spouses regarding property division and support. We’ll assess your relationship status and explain what you may be entitled to or obligated for.
Can I relocate with my child if I share parenting time?
You cannot relocate with a child without first meeting specific notice and consent requirements under Section 66 of the Family Law Act. If the other parent objects, the court will determine whether the move is in the child’s best interests. We’ll help you prepare your case or respond to a relocation request.
What happens if my ex won’t disclose financial information?
Both parties are legally required to provide full and honest financial disclosure. If one side fails to comply, the court can impose consequences, including cost awards or setting aside agreements. We take swift legal action to enforce transparency and protect your interests.
When can support orders be changed or ended?
Child and spousal support orders may be varied if there’s been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, new expenses, or a change in parenting time. We’ll help you determine if a change is warranted and prepare the legal documents needed to apply for a variation.
