Family Court Process

The Family Court process consists of many steps, including:

Preparation of initial Application and Response documents
Extensive disclosure of financial and non-financial documents
One or more case conferences (short court hearing to advance the proceeding)
Interim motions (i.e. to change temporary custody & access arrangements)
A settlement conference (short court hearing aimed at promoting settlement)
A trial management conference (setting the timelines for a trial on any issues that did not settle)
Preparation of documents and witnesses for trial
Trial (often lengthy)
Appeals of the trial decision, if necessary

Each court step is important, and failure to adequately prepare for any one of these can ruin your case. All of the above steps are subject to unique rules that you may not know about.
