Handling matters relating to property division while going through a divorce can feel overwhelming. At Hawthorne Piggott & Company, our commitment is to provide you with the guidance and support that you need, every step of the way.
With over 45 years of experience serving clients in Burnaby, our team of family lawyers has the practical experience that you need. We understand British Columbia’s Family Law Act and use our knowledge to support your case.
In BC, the general rule is that upon divorce, spouses are both entitled to an equally divided share of family property and debt provided that they have not made alternative arrangements. In some instances, certain assets may fall under the category of excluded property such as inheritances, gifts, or property acquired before the beginning of the marriage-like relationship.
We endeavour to make the property division process as straightforward and efficient as possible. We recognize that it can be an especially difficult situation and are dedicated to providing you with honest, compassionate representation.
While we are dedicated to handling your property division issues efficiently, we recognize the importance of a thorough approach. If required, we will draw on the expertise of third-party professionals to ensure a comprehensive strategy.
We are dedicated to providing you with the guidance you need to work towards achieving the best possible outcome. Property division can be complicated but it doesn’t have to be. We’re here to help.
