Common Questions
Family law questions Oshawa clients often ask.
Can shift work be included in parenting planning?
Yes. Work hours, overtime, childcare coverage, and travel time can affect what parenting schedule is practical.
What if support payments have been missed?
Keep records and get advice about arrears, enforcement, and whether a change in circumstances needs review.
Can a matter settle after court materials are filed?
Yes. Many family matters continue to resolve by agreement even after court has started.
