SMART - PEACE OF MIND - WISDOM
The Smart Divorce Solution with a Financial Focus
"Of course it includes legalities, but divorce is really about families, change and starting over.
It's about tax implications and making smart money decisions. It's about where will I go? What will I do? Who will I be?"










10 SMART REASONS
1. Stay Out of Family Court – It’s a Slow and Expensive Mess
You don’t need the emotional and financial mess that comes with Family Court. If it didn’t work for your parents, why would it work now? Going to court is like burning money while increasing the drama. You can avoid all that. With The Common Sense Divorce, you get a clear legal process that skips the courtroom chaos, keeps the peace, and saves you time, money, and heartache.
2. Focus on YOUR Kids – They’re What Matters Most
Divorce is hardest on the kids, but it doesn’t have to ruin their lives. A solid Co-Parenting Plan is the best thing you can give your kids during this time. We help you create a smart, child-focused plan that gives them stability and ensures they feel loved by both parents. When your kids are okay, you’ll be okay.
3. Your New Financial Life Starts Here – Get Smart with Your Money
Divorce changes everything, especially your money. If you’ve been relying on someone else to handle the finances, now’s the time to take control. Our financial experts will help you make money-smart decisions, so you can plan for your future with confidence. No more flying by the seat of your pants – let’s get a plan together.
4. Real Estate and Mortgages – KEEP or SELL?
The roof over your head is a big deal. Should you keep the house? Can you afford it? Is selling a better option? In today’s economy, these decisions aren’t easy. That’s why our Home Services Team – Realtors, Mortgage Brokers, and Real Estate Lawyers – are here to help you figure it all out. We’ll walk you through creative solutions that work for your new reality.
5. The Tax Man Cometh – Don’t Get Caught Off Guard
Divorce is tough enough without triggering a tax disaster. You need a smart plan for dividing assets, and we get that. Our team understands the financial side of divorce inside and out. We’ll help you handle the money, so you don’t end up paying more taxes than you should. Let’s make sure your divorce doesn’t cost you any more than it needs to.
6. Legal Processes That Actually Work – The Best of Mediation & Collaborative Law
Forget the drama. Forget the lawyers yelling in court. We offer a better way. The Common Sense Divorce combines mediation and collaborative law, so you and your spouse can work together on what really matters. You get your own Support Team – legal, financial, and wellness professionals who help you get through this in a way that works for everyone.
7. Fixed Fee Plans with Flexible Payment Options – No Surprises
The last thing you need right now is financial stress, and that includes unexpected bills. We offer Fixed Fee Legal Plans, so you know exactly what you’re paying for upfront. And if cash flow is tight (which it usually is during divorce), we have flexible payment plans to help you manage costs without freaking out about your budget.
8. Online Services – No More Driving or Hiring Babysitters
The world has changed. You shouldn’t have to sit in traffic, waste time in offices, or find a babysitter just to handle your divorce. We offer the convenience of online services available across all of Ontario. Do everything from the comfort of your own home – because you’ve got enough on your plate as it is.
9. Wills, Income Taxes, and Court Submissions – Face the Changes with a Plan
Divorce isn’t just about splitting up. It’s about planning for your new life. You’ll need a new Will, you’ll need to file your first income taxes after the split, and you’ll probably need a new mortgage. Our Fixed Fee Plans include all of this, so you’re not left scrambling. We help you face these changes with a plan that’s smart, strategic, and tailored to your situation.
10. With almost Two Decades of Experience – We’ve Got Your Back

Thinking of Divorce? First Things First
How much a divorce will cost, how acrimonious it will be, and what the future looks like, is decided by you… right now – before your first move.
STOP - BREATHE - THINK
Before anything, do your homework. Know your gameplan.
ASK YOUR SELF THESE 10 QUESTIONS:
- Am I ready to make a decision – be it to stay or to leave?
- Is now the best time to separate?
- If I decide to stay, what are the financial, emotional or safety risks?
- What do I have to do to create a smart financial plan for myself (and my children?)
- Do I understand how Ontario Law divides our stuff; both our assets and our debts?
- Do I actually know what’s involved with Child or Spousal Support?
- Does it make sense to try and keep my home or can I make a wiser money plan?
- If my spouse is “difficult,” do I have a solid strategy on how to navigate through this?
- Can I articulate my negotiation options and then choose the wisest legal process for my situation?
- What can I do now to land on the best foot forward for myself (and my children?)
