A few questions you may be asking right now. ### Where should I start if I’m considering separation? You do not need to have every detail worked out before contacting a lawyer. Start with a conversation about your circumstances, your concerns, and what you would like to understand. The office can explain the next step. ### What should I bring to an initial meeting? Ask the office which documents are relevant before sending anything. A short timeline, a list of questions, and any existing agreements or court documents can help you prepare. ### How do I find out what legal services will cost? Contact the office to discuss your situation and ask about the proposed scope of work, fees, taxes, and disbursements. Specific pricing and payment arrangements should be confirmed directly before work begins. ### Can I contact you about immigration or refugee matters? Yes. Oad Law also assists with immigration and refugee matters. Contact the office to discuss the nature of your enquiry and current availability. ## Support beyond family law.
