What Our Clients Say
I have nothing but positive things to say about Amanda! She is a very caring and companionate individual with a big heart and a level of understanding and commitment that goes above and beyond. From the very first time I spoke with her, I knew she would put the needs of my family and I first. She is very knowledgeable with the legal process, is not afraid to research different ways to ensure my needs are met and is beyond patient when answering all of my questions (sometimes more than once!). I am confident in placing my trust in Amanda and her abilities and I feel very fortunate to have found her. She has been an unbelievable lifeline for me during this very stressful, scary and emotional roller coaster.
The team at Crossroads Law is very experienced and straightforward. They handled my family matter in a fair, equitable, and professional manner. I also appreciated that they understood the impacts and helped to manage costs to the benefit of all.

Who Gets the House After Separation in Alberta?
For many separating couples, the family home is their most valuable asset, and a major source of stress. In Alberta, the Family Property Act governs how property will be divided. It applies to both married spouses and adult interdependent partners (formerly referred to as "common law" partners).
Ready, Set, Arbitrate! How to Prepare for Family Law Arbitration in Alberta
Family law arbitration offers an alternative to the lengthy, expensive, and stressful process of going to court. It allows families in Alberta to resolve issues such as parenting arrangements, child support, spousal support, and property division in a less formal setting.
How Mediation Can Improve Access to Justice
Access to justice is a growing concern across Canada, affecting individuals, families, and communities. Many people face barriers that make it difficult to resolve disputes, protect their rights, or navigate the legal system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Separation doesn't always lead to court; alternatives like negotiation, mediation, collaborative law, and arbitration can resolve disputes amicably.
Divorce in Canada usually necessitates a one-year separation, with the timeline varying due to factors like asset complexity, parenting disputes, and court schedules.
Separation, especially from a violent relationship, requires prioritizing safety. Obtain protection orders, seek emotional support, and use resources like Calgary Legal Guidance and the Calgary Women's Emergency Shelter in Alberta, or BC's safety planning guide, for assistance.
In Canada, one spouse can proceed with separation without the other's consent by demonstrating the intention to live separately, through actions like moving out or separating finances.
