Renee Konotopsky

Renée Konotopsky brings over two decades of dedicated experience to the realm of family law. Since 2001, she has committed herself exclusively to guiding clients through the complexities of familial disputes.

With a fervent belief in fostering resolutions grounded in respect and understanding, Renée strives to help her clients navigate issues pertaining to parenting and finances. She recognizes the importance of preserving amicable relationships, especially when children are involved.

Renée's expertise extends to various dispute resolution methods, including mediation and collaborative law. Her comprehensive training equips her to handle negotiations with finesse, aiming for non-adversarial outcomes whenever possible. However, she is equally adept at representing clients in court proceedings when collaborative approaches falter.

She generously volunteers her time to mentor law students and provide legal guidance to community members through organizations like Calgary Legal Guidance.

Renée's proficiency also extends to the meticulous drafting of legal agreements, covering diverse areas such as cohabitation, prenuptial arrangements, marriage contracts, and settlements.

Renée's educational journey led her to Memorial University of Newfoundland and the University of Saskatchewan, where she earned her law degree in 2000. Outside her professional endeavors, Renée finds joy in her role as a spouse and parent to three energetic children.

For those seeking mediation sessions or initial consultations, Renée welcomes inquiries and encourages prospective clients to reach out for assistance.
