Family Lawyers in Timmins

Each lawyer at Ellery Law focus on all matters related to family law including cohabitation to marriages as well as separation and divorces.

Family law intertwines with every other area of the law be it real estate law (the sale / buyout of the matrimonial home), wills and estates law (spouses dependants’ claims), criminal law (domestic related charges), or corporate law (self-employed spouse’s / income for spousal support purposes).

At EEP, each lawyer has practiced in family law from the outset of their careers. With a strong background in family law Justin and Dominika are able to identify collateral issues in various areas of law and avoid unnecessary delays in prolonging a separation or divorce. Separations can be long, drawn out and an expensive process but it doesn’t have to be.

We always aim to resolve family disputes outside of court first and foremost, but our team is prepared to take a more litigious route if needed.

Each lawyer at Ellery Law practice in the area of child protection law.

Justin Ellery has a history of representing child protection Agencies since 1990, as he was legal counsel to various Agencies in Timmins and Surrounding Area (Cochrane, Kirkland Lake, Haileybury, Kapuskasing, Hearst, Chapleau, Horne Payne) along with the James and Hudson Bay coastline (Moosonee, Kashechewan, Fort Albany, Attawapiskat, Peawanuck). Given that child protection Agencies now typically staff their own in-house lawyers, Justin Ellery is only legal counsel to Kunnuwanimano Child and Family Services.

Justin and Dominika represent families who are involved with North Eastern and Family Services (NEOFACS) or Payukotayno James and Hudson Bay Child and Family Services and who are not in conflict from the Justin Ellery’s previous representation of either respective Agency.

Ellery Law has a unique perspective on how to handle child protection matters and represent parents who are involved in the system. We attempt to resolve child protection disputes expeditiously and outside the court system if possible.
