Family and Matrimonial Law and Litigation

Divorce, child custody, property division and support cases can pose difficult legal issues for those already struggling with emotional turmoil at the end of a relationship. These unique circumstances require the knowledge and skill of family law lawyers with deep experience in this area.

LK Law’s Family Law Group focuses on protecting your rights while achieving positive results. At Lindsay Kenney LLP, our Family Law Group in Vancouver is headed by partner Angela Thiele who has practiced family law for more than 25 years. Christine Eilers is the newest member to LK Law’s Family Law Group called to the Bar in 2011.

In LK Law’s Langley office, partner Trevor Fowler and associate Puneet Khaira are the firm’s family law practitioners. A highly experienced litigator, Trevor is also known as a strong proponent of alternate dispute resolution strategies. For her part, Puneet brings a background of leadership in family law in the community. Her fluency in Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu allows her to effectively communicate with clients who speak those languages.

The Family Law Lawyers are supported by experienced family law paralegals providing cost effective representation to their clients.

Our Family Law Lawyers and Divorce Lawyers in Vancouver and Langley offer a wide range of services. We can help you with basic and complex divorce issues, breakdown in common law relationships, property division, protecting business interests, custody and access disputes, tax implications upon marriage breakdown, support payments, or the involvement of child protection social workers in your life. Our Family Law lawyers assist clients in reaching marriage, cohabitation, or separation agreements, and aid their clients in resolving disputes through negotiation and mediation, or litigating both simple and complex cases through trial. We pride ourselves on adopting the approach that best suits the needs of our clients.

Our Family Law lawyers have appeared at all levels of court in British Columbia and at the Supreme Court of Canada. Angela Thiele was counsel for one of the first cases in British Columbia to consider the Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines. Trevor Fowler has experience with difficult and complex property disputes, including the issues that arise from the valuation and structuring of business assets upon dissolution of a relationship. Although more recently called to the bar, Puneet Khaira has a very busy family practice, through which she has received valuable and significant court experience.
