Providing guidance and justice for individuals facing family law matters, estate & capacity disputes, or professional negligence claims.

Family Law

The experience and expertise to create just and compassionate outcomes for clients facing family law issues.

It is our goal to resolve family law matters outside the court process, limiting the emotional and financial challenges of family breakdowns. Rosen Sack understands the entire process.

We provide strong and sympathetic counsel for: separation and divorce; aligning and negotiating marriage contracts; parenting issues; child and spousal support; and property and asset division. We are here to support you and your needs.

When a couple separates, the impact of the breakdown of the relationship can be extensive. Rosen Sack is regularly retained to handle matters such as the intersection of family and business law; trust and estate matters; as well as the nexus of family and estate law.

Estate Litigation

Protecting and safeguarding financial interests in the estate & capacity context through negotiation and litigation.

With an aging population and the largest wealth transfer in Canadian history, estate disputes and capacity related disputes are on the rise. 

Our estate litigation team acts in advancing and defending claims by dependants, including spouses or common-law spouses and children, who are seeking support under the Succession Law Reform Act (Ontario) as well as more broadly in all types of estate-related litigation and guardianship and power of attorney disputes. 

Our unique crossover between our family law team and our estate litigation team allows us to bring clear-headed, well-reasoned analysis to help our clients navigate these highly stressful situations.

Professional
Negligence

Preventing and defending negligence claims against lawyers through mediation and litigation.

We have decades of experience helping lawyers and their professional liability insurer, the Lawyers’ Professional Indemnity Company, respond to claims and potential claims against them.   

Through critical analysis and experience we have helped countless lawyers in preventing these claims from moving forward. However, when our clients are sued we are fierce courtroom advocates, vigorously defending claims. We have a proven track record of success in court in defending and repairing mistakes to prevent negligence claims.

We have successfully achieved discreet resolutions using mediation to safeguard the reputation of our professional clients.

As Preferred Counsel for the Lawyers’ Professional Indemnity Company, we bring sensitivity, understanding and strategic thinking to the process of creating the best outcomes for our clients.

We have the experience and expertise to provide the right alternative dispute resolution process for your unique circumstances.

Mediation &
Arbitration

Mediation and arbitration are alternative dispute resolution processes that are private and cost-effective mechanisms used to to achieve a settlement. Rosen Sack offers both methods for family law; and mediation for estate & capacity litigation disputes.

Mediation is a less adversarial and timely way for parties to voluntarily resolve a dispute. Practical solutions can be crafted in this private negotiation, saving the time, tension and expense of going to court.

In arbitration, the parties involved agree to have an impartial third party, rather than a judge, hear evidence before making an arbitral award. This is similar to a trial, but far more private.
