About Sherman Law LLP

Sherman Law LLP is a family-owned firm in Kitchener, Ontario, that has practised for more than four decades. The firm concentrates on family law and estates, including divorce, separation, family mediation, collaborative divorce, family arbitration, estate planning, and estate administration. It takes its name from the Sherman family: Aubrey J. Sherman is the managing partner, and Kenneth L. Sherman is senior partner emeritus.

The firm frames its work through what's known as the comprehensive law movement, and it describes its aim as reducing conflict rather than escalating it. Most family files are steered toward out-of-court resolution through mediation, collaborative practice, and negotiation, and the firm draws in financial professionals and mental health practitioners when a matter calls for it. When a case does need litigation, the firm represents clients in court. From its King Street East office, Sherman Law serves clients across Waterloo Region, including Kitchener, Waterloo, and Cambridge, and elsewhere in Ontario.
