Division of Property & Debt
Sorting out what is shared and what is yours.
Overview
British Columbia uses an excluded-property model: family property and family debt are generally shared, while certain property you brought into the relationship may be excluded. Applying these rules correctly can make a significant difference.
We help identify, value, and divide family property — including homes, pensions, investments, and business interests — and untangle family debt, so the division is fair and properly documented.
How we can help
- Identifying family property and excluded property
- Valuing homes, pensions, RRSPs, and investments
- Dividing business interests and complex assets
- Allocating family debt fairly between parties
- Documenting the division in a binding agreement or order
What working with us looks like
Inventory
We catalogue assets and debts and determine what is shared versus excluded.
Value
We bring in the right valuations so numbers are accurate and defensible.
Divide
We negotiate or litigate a division that reflects the law and your contributions.
