A contested divorce happens when one of the partners disagrees with a few or all arrangements in the divorce. Some common issues occur related to spousal support, child support, division of assets, child visitation, etc. A contested divorce can be handled in various ways, such as outside the court with a mediator. Resolving a contested divorce can take a lot of time compared to uncontested divorces.

Here’s how you can file for a contested divorce in Canada.

Consult a Mediator

Contesting a divorce in itself means that the divorce is becoming messy. When this happens, dealing with it on your own can further disrupt the whole process. The best way is to hire a mediator to let them take the lead.

File the Case

Since you’re hiring a mediator, you don’t have to worry about filing the case in court. Your lawyer will prepare the application and submit the draft to the court for a legal proceeding. As an expert, your lawyer will have all the necessary skills to make a strong case.

Complete the Documentation

Proper documentation is highly necessary to contest a divorce. Your lawyer will tell you what documents you need to submit with the application. Apart from it, you can also get general information on the internet. Make sure to submit all documents to make a strong case in the court of law.

Wait for an Approval

Once you have submitted the documents and your lawyer has presented your appeal in court, it’s time to sit back and wait for a decision. A lawyer can be of great help during the entire process and can save you from losing your chances.
