Lorne and his team at MacLean Law took on my complex case, which involved not just divorce but also a tangle of property disputes and child custody issues. It was a stressful time, navigating through high net worth assets and trying to ensure a fair division while also securing my children's future. Lorne's expertise was evident in every step. His ability to break down the most complicated legal matters into understandable terms was a lifeline.

I was particularly impressed by how Lorne handled our court appearances. We had to go before the BC Supreme Court a few times, and each time, Lorne was a powerhouse, blending his in-depth knowledge of family law with a keen sense of strategy. His reputation as a tough but fair advocate was clear to see, and it made all the difference.

It wasn't just the big moments in court, though. Lorne's commitment to my case was evident in the small details, too. He was always available for a quick call or to answer an email whenever I had questions or needed reassurance. His guidance made a challenging process much more bearable.

Hi! I’m hoping to get in contact with a good Vancouver divorce lawyer. I am a stay at home mom to five small children looking to leave my common law relationship, and I need help understanding (and an advocate for) my rights. Email works best for me because, again, five small children. I hope this form works!
