I realise that the forums are here to assist, and would urge anyone going through a marriage/relationship breakdown to seek assistance and independant legal advice.
However, as a lot of people bustling their way through the Family Court System are self-representing, I thought I would provide a few invaluable links:
Ministry of the Attorney General of Ontario-family law overview Ministry of the Attorney General - Family Law
Ministry of the Attorney General of Ontario-family court forms
Family Law Rules Forms — Ontario Court Services
Children's Law Reform Act-deals with access and custody, rules to establish parentage
Children's Law Reform Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.12
Family Law Act-spousal and child support, possession of matrimonial home, division of property
Family Law Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. F.3
Family Responsibility and Support Arrears Enforcement Act-covers powers of FRO
Family Responsibility and Support Arrears Enforcement Act, 1996, S.O. 1996, c. 31
Divorce Act-federal jurisdiction
Divorce Act
Reading some of the legislation can be confusing, but you will be more prepared for what is to come if you have a basic understanding of what applies.
