Modern Family Law LLP is a Toronto firm that practices exclusively in family and divorce law, working from an office on Avenue Road in the city's Bedford Park neighbourhood. The firm was founded by Stephanie Pasternak, who has practiced family law exclusively since 2007, and Michael Tweyman, who has practiced family law exclusively since 2006. Its team of eight lawyers, made up of three partners, a counsel lawyer, and several associates, handles divorce, separation agreements, child custody and access, child and spousal support, property division, common law property disputes, and appeals through negotiation, mediation, and litigation.
Several lawyers on the team combine family law practice with teaching or dispute resolution roles elsewhere in the profession. Michael Tweyman is an adjunct professor at Osgoode Hall Law School and has been successful at every level of court in Ontario, including the Court of Appeal, in cases that often cross into corporate, estates, or bankruptcy law. The firm says it uses artificial intelligence tools to handle routine work so lawyers can focus on strategy, and it offers free phone or Zoom consultations along with extended hours for clients.
