Our Services
Family Law Firm Oshawa – Areas of Practice
Rohr Law Professional Corporation stands as a dependable family law firm that offers clients comprehensive legal support for individuals and families navigating separation and divorce, including simple divorces, separation agreements, parenting arrangements, and urgent matters involving domestic or family violence and child protection. We also assist with property division, trust claims, marriage contracts and cohabitation agreements, as well as child and spousal support to help clients protect their rights and achieve fair outcomes. Our team works to solve family law cases quickly while we defend your legal rights and safeguard what benefits your children and protect your future stability.
Separation & Divorce
Separation and divorce procedures create both emotional challenges and legal obstacles which people must navigate. Our lawyers provide clear guidance on rights, obligations, and next steps under Ontario law. We are your trusted family law firm, dedicated to achieving fair settlements while guiding you toward your future goals with confidence and care.
Simple Divorces
Simple divorces become suitable for couples who maintain total agreement about child custody and financial support and property ownership issues. Our team operates the entire process through efficient management which starts with document creation and ends when divorce orders become final while we maintain legal requirements and reduce all unnecessary waiting and emotional distress.
Separation Agreements
The legal protection which a well-prepared separation agreement provides helps people avoid future disagreements. Our team helps clients create agreements for parenting matters and child and spousal support and property division which include specific terms that courts will follow according to Ontario family laws.
Parenting
Parenting arrangements should allow for a stable environment and prioritise the best interests of the child. Our focus is to provide resolutions for parenting time issues and responsibilities based on Child First, thus reducing conflict between parents and avoiding additional strain on families.
Urgent Matters
Certain situations require immediate legal attention. Our team responds immediately to urgent matters which include emergency parenting situations and urgent legal motions and financial emergencies. Our method delivers the fast service which top family law firms in Oshawa use to attract their clients.
Domestic and Family Violence
When it comes to domestic and family violence, we provide the best support possible in a confidential and compassionate manner. Our legal team assists clients with restraining orders and all related family law matters, with an emphasis on maintaining safety and providing guidance respectfully and effectively.
Child Protection
Child protection is a serious matter that needs immediate attention. We represent both parents and guardians in any child welfare proceedings concerning the interests and safety of their child. We consider all relevant factors, including the safety and welfare of the child and the rights of the parent to a fair hearing.
Property Division
When dealing with property division, clients must be aware of all financial and legal factors involved so that they can make informed decisions. Our lawyers help clients through the equalization process, the disclosure of assets and debt division and help them understand their rights regarding property division.
Trust Claims
When there is a disagreement over who has ownership of property or has contributed financially to the property in question the trust claim arises. We provide legal counsel regarding the equitable interests in the property in question and the legal options available to resolve complicated family law disputes related to trusts.
Cohabitation Agreements
Cohabitation agreements can help clarify the rights and obligations of both parties in respect of their finances. We create legally binding agreements that outline the financial obligations of both parties as well as plan for the couples to exist together based on agreements that outline their intentions.
Child Support
The determination of child support is determined in accordance with the Federal Child Support Guidelines. We assist in the calculation of the amount of child support, enforce any child support obligations, and request changes in amounts of child support when either party’s income or circumstances change.
Spousal Support
Determining spousal support can be complex, involving legal and financial considerations. Our experienced Oshawa family law team helps families reach fair, practical solutions through negotiation or the courts.

Legal fees vary depending on the complexity of the matter and whether it is contested. Many family law firms in Oshawa offer hourly billing, flat fees for straightforward services, and consultations to help clients understand potential costs early.
An uncontested divorce typically takes four to six months after filing. Matters involving parenting, support, or property disputes may take longer. Early legal advice can help reduce delays and avoid unnecessary complications.

Urgent matters involve immediate concerns such as safety, emergency parenting issues, or financial risks. Courts can address these situations quickly, and timely legal action may be necessary to protect rights and well-being.
Child support is determined using the Federal Child Support Guidelines, primarily based on income and the number of children. Legal guidance can help ensure calculations are accurate and updated when circumstances change.

Posted on Anthony BiancaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been represented by Rohr Law Professional Corporation for 6 years now and have always felt like I have been treated extremely well and respected. Their ability to answer questions promptly and with great detail have always made me remain confident as their client. Rachel and Connor are easy to talk to and has put my mind at ease multiple times during difficult situations. Thank you Rohr Law Professional Corporation for always being there when I needed you.Posted on Kelly VieiraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Posted on Hazel DeGazonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My name is Hazel DeGazon, and I was blessed to acquire the legal representation of Rachel Rohr's firm. Two of the lawyers, namely Rachel Rohr and Deborah Willoughby managed my case which was won by our team. Rachel and Deborah treated me with dignity, respect and a delicate touch customized toward my needs to keep me comfortable and reassured. They clearly managed my expectations, keeping me abreast of the procedures/processes executed to successfully accomplish each of the multiple milestones associated with a Divorce/Separation Agreement. *** I loved most about the Rohr firm was. - their diligence and exceptional preparedness for any direction the case might follow, getting all versions of documentation ready to address all scenarios that might occur. - their professionalism, efficiency, knowledge, and research to ensure all claims were accurate and doable/acceptable. - their focus on YOU. I could see their genuine concern for my well being throughout the process. (They would stress with you. Work around finances with you, so that you would focus only on the tasks assigned and nothing else.) They did not want me to stress about anything. That was what they did for me. When I looked distraught, I would be hugged to bring my spirits up. They took the time to get a feel for me and understood what I needed to keep going. *** Yes, they are excellent lawyers, who fight with facts and case precedents and crunch figures, but they also care about YOU. I would recommend Rohr's Law firm, because not only will they fight for you, manage your expectations to keep it 'real', but they do care about YOUR PERSONAL WELL BEING. You are a somebody to them. They care about you and work toward making you 'whole' again after your case is settled. Rohr's Law firm team - thank you for all that you have done for me. I would recommend this firm to anyone who needs that personal touch and a Winning team!
