BEVERLEY JOHNSTON NOW HOLDING PRIVATE SETTLEMENT CONFERENCES
WHAT WE DO

Is your client frustrated with the long wait for settlement conference dates? Are you looking for creative ideas for settlement options? Are you looking to narrow the issues for trial? Do you think  your client would benefit from a legal opinion on the likely outcome at trial?

 

Johnston Family Law is happy to announce that it’s founder, Beverley Johnston, will now be offering private settlement conferences.

 

Beverley Johnston has been  working exclusively in the field of family law in Ottawa for 20 years. Beverley spent the majority of her career at a midsized firm in Ottawa, before opening her own firm in 2016. The bulk of her practice is litigation based, and Beverley prides herself on  staying up to date on recent court decisions especially decisions by judges in the East region. She is comfortable working on files with a complex financial component,  including persons with business interests and diversified financial holdings, issues around imputation of income, retirement, complex spousal support issues, child support and section 7 disputes to name only a few. She is also is a panel member of the Office of the Children’s Lawyer and has extensive experience dealing  with high conflict parenting issues.

 

Conferences would be held at our offices located in the heart of the Westboro neighbourhood of Ottawa. Please contact our office for more information about our fee structure. Fixed prices are available upon request.
