Guide to Family Law
- Share to:
This guide provides general legal information to people involved in separation or divorce proceedings. It is also a useful reference on child custody and access, and on child support or spousal support.
This publication is not a substitute for legal advice from a lawyer and it does not provide advice on specific situations. The Yukon Department of Justice suggests that people with legal problems contact a lawyer for advice.
Words in bold type are listed, with their definitions, in the glossary at the end of the book, along with other terms used in family law.
The Yukon Guide to Family Law is based on the Family Law Guide developed by Family Justice Services Western, a pilot project in Corner Brook, Newfoundland.
This guide is produced with the financial support of the Department of Justice Canada. It may be reproduced or quoted with appropriate acknowledgement of the Yukon Department of Justice
