BC Separation Agreement Lawyers

Part Ways with Clarity, Not Conflict

Separating doesn’t have to mean court. A well-drafted separation agreement settles property division, debts, spousal support, and parenting arrangements on your terms — faster, calmer, and at a fraction of the cost of litigation.

Why Freedom Family Law

Why Resolve Your Separation by Agreement

Most separating couples in BC never need a courtroom. When you can reach terms together, a separation agreement gives those terms legal force — and our drafting is a flat fee of $1,500–$2,500, with advice, revisions, and negotiation billed at a transparent hourly rate only if you need them.

  • Settle property and debt

    Divide family property, the home, pensions, and debts clearly — instead of leaving it to the default rules of the Family Law Act.

  • Define spousal support

    Set the amount and duration of support (or a waiver) in writing, so neither of you faces an open-ended claim.

  • Put parenting in writing

    Parenting time, responsibilities, and child support documented clearly, with your children’s stability at the centre.

  • Avoid litigation costs

    A negotiated agreement typically costs a small fraction of a contested court proceeding — in money, time, and stress.
