This page from JP Boyd on Family Law—and other pages from this Wikibook that discuss BC family law litigation topics—are under editorial review to provide more thorough, current, and practical guidance. Since 2020, procedures, forms, and laws have changed significantly. While gross inaccuracies have been corrected, some details may still be outdated. These pages were not included in the 2024 print edition, and have been highlighted in orange where they appear in the navigation menu on this website. |
Legal issues can sometimes be resolved in a number of ways outside of court. Depending on your particular circumstances, you may not need to go to court. Good starting points to learn more about alternatives to court include:
- Alternatives to Going to Court. This guidebook from the Justice Education Society explains how most lawsuits filed with the court are resolved without going to trial.
- Who can help you reach an agreement? This fact sheet from the Legal Services Society explains who can help you come to a family law agreement.
- Hold on for a minute, do you really have to go to court? This section in the Clicklaw wikibook JP Boyd on Family Law outlines some issues to consider before going to court.
