And there are many misconceptions.
One prevalent myth is that child support isn’t mandatory while spousal support is non-negotiable.
However, the reality is quite the opposite.
Child support is legally mandated, ensuring that children are well and adequately provided for within the context of Canadian law.
On the other hand, spousal support arrangements can indeed be negotiated, accommodating the unique circumstances of the parties involved.
Collaborative Divorce lawyers play a pivotal role in dispelling these misconceptions and facilitating fair and equitable agreements.
Collaborative Professionals assist couples: understand their rights; provide a neutral ground for discussion; explore their options; and help craft support arrangements that work for everyone involved.
