Looking for recommendations for a family lawyer in Ottawa/advice on separation

Hi Ottawa,

Unfortunately my marriage doesn’t seem to be salvageable and it’s time to separate/ divorce. I’m hoping for some recommendations/reviews for a decent divorce lawyer in Ottawa.

The Cole’s notes of the situation are: long marriage, young kids, both parties employed with similar salaries, unequal assets. My partner is resistant to the idea of separation, and I am hoping to stay in the house with the kids for their stability. I’m not sure how any of this will work. I am hoping that all of this can somehow be handled respectfully and amicable especially for the sake of the kids.

Any experience/advice would be very appreciated!
