Yes, couples in Ontario can split assets amicably through mediation and collaborative methods

Dividing matrimonial assets amicably is not only possible but highly recommended in Ontario divorces. Working with a divorce mediator or Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) can help facilitate a smooth process while saving time and money.

  • Mediation allows couples to maintain control over asset division decisions
  • Professional mediators help ensure fair and equitable distribution
  • The collaborative approach typically costs less than litigation
  • Amicable settlements often lead to better post-divorce relationships
  • Both parties can receive independent legal advice throughout the process

Once an agreement is reached, the terms can be formalized in a separation agreement and submitted to the court as part of the divorce proceedings.
