Thompson Law Office

Collaborative Practice

Thompson Law Office has specialized training in Collaborative Family Law, and Kimberley Thompson is listed in the member directory of Best4All, Collaborative Practice of Waterloo Region. Collaborative Practice is a non-adversarial way to separate: you and your partner or spouse tailor a written separation agreement together, with no need to go to court. Each party signs an agreement confirming a commitment to settle the separation outside court. Working with a collaboratively trained team of legal, family and financial professionals is meant to cost you less time, less money and less emotional strain than traditional divorce litigation.

Purchases, sales and refinancing

Wills, powers of attorney and estates

Estate planning covers wills, a power of attorney for property, a power of attorney for personal care, and estate administration. Marriage contracts and cohabitation agreements form part of that planning too, with the aim that your plans for the future are well considered and don't weigh on you or your family.
