About Caspar van Baal Family Law and Mediation

Van Baal Family Law and Mediation is a sole-practitioner family law firm in Ottawa, run by Caspar van Baal from an office on Bank Street. Van Baal is originally from the Netherlands and came to Ottawa by way of Saskatchewan to study law at the University of Ottawa, starting in 1986. Over more than 35 years of practice, the firm has built its work around family law: separation and divorce, property and pension division, spousal and child support, and custody and parenting arrangements.

Alongside traditional representation, Van Baal Family Law offers collaborative family law and accredited family mediation through the Ontario Association of Family Mediators (OAFM). The firm also drafts cohabitation agreements and marriage contracts and can give independent legal advice on a separation agreement someone else has prepared. It favours a low conflict, cooperative approach where possible, but represents clients in court when negotiation and mediation don't resolve a dispute. Van Baal Family Law offers services in English and Dutch.
