Ottawa Divorce Lawyer

Macleod Boyle Law and Mediation Chambers (MB Chambers) provides an experienced staff of lawyers, mediators, and law clerks who handle a wide range of family law, estate, and court-connected cases in Ottawa. We offer multiple options and integrated legal services to meet our clients' needs. Together, using our client-centered approach, we will assess and choose a resolution option that is designed to match your real needs and interests. We have a convenient location in West Ottawa (Morrison / Greenbank right near the 417).

MB Chambers is dedicated to effective advocacy in cooperative as well as contested cases. Our lawyers and mediators achieve informed decisions and good settlements by utilizing a team approach which coordinates essential consultations, and information disclosure through to specialized dispute or issue resolution. Our highly experienced staff ensures that you receive the appropriate service and cost effective results. Your legal needs will benefit from our Ottawa family lawyers' decades of training and experience in law and mediation. 

It is conventional wisdom that real results are derived through negotiated settlements crafted by the parties and their counsel, as opposed to the option of litigation or trial proceedings. At the same time Nigel Macleod is a highly effective trial lawyer with three decades of specialized Family Court experience. Moreover, our legal mandate requires that we present statutory models or legal issues during your consultation with us. Reliable information about your options is essential in any alternative law strategy.

The key point is that you are the ultimate judge of your own process or terms of settlement although we will definitely be making recommendations based on cost/benefit analysis. A wider range of process options with specialized legal and Alternative Dispute Resolutions (ADR) professionals generates more possibilities for you to design and effectively control your own case.
