Navigating Family Law Solutions At The Kitchen Table

Family law matters often involve complex legal processes, but not all resolutions occur within the confines of a court room. When marriage breakdown occurs, it is not uncommon for the parties to try to sort out their differences by attempting a written Agreement between them, often without lawyers being involved. These Agreements tend to be referred to as “kitchen table” Agreements due to their homemade origins. While most lawyers would encourage a separated spouse to get some legal advice before embarking on a such an ambitious undertaking, it is nonetheless still very common for many individuals to try to save a few dollars in legal fees by tackling a homemade “kitchen table” Agreement to address the various issues facing the separated parties.
