Canadian Common Law Separation
Summary
In Canadian common law separations, hiring a lawyer in the jurisdiction where the case is filed is crucial. The male can hire a Saskatchewan lawyer to represent him, as the case is likely under Saskatchewan jurisdiction. He should respond to legal notices within the specified timeframe and can request an extension if needed. Mediation is a viable option if both parties agree, potentially saving costs compared to court proceedings. Child custody decisions focus on the childs best interests, considering factors like needs, stability, and parental cooperation. Court cases can take over a year, with legal fees ranging from $6,000 to $45,000 per party. Mediation is quicker, often resolved in a few months, and requires a written agreement. Highlighting the financial and emotional impact on children may encourage the other party to consider mediation.Full Conversation

Including the financial strain and impact on children in the extension request letter can demonstrate the male's genuine concern for the children's well-being and his willingness to find an amicable resolution. This may positively influence the court and the opposing party. However, there's a slight risk they could view it as a sign of financial weakness. Given the situation, it might be beneficial to include the information about financial strain and mediation in the letter.

I am back after reading the information. Thank you. What would be the best lawyer to pick? A female or male. I read it is suggested a male should hire a female lawyer. Is this correct or any benefit?
Case Rating: *
The choice of a male or female lawyer does not inherently make a difference in the quality of legal representation. It's more important to choose a lawyer with experience in family law and someone you feel comfortable with. Focus on their expertise, track record, and communication style rather than gender.
Is there anything else you would like to know?

thanks... a check list what should be looked for when looking for a lawyer who knows common law inside out and would be willing to understand about Nunavut. For example wages are higher in Nunavut because everything is more expensive. Thus if they take the Nunavut wage on par to a Saskatchewan wage the man would pay overly to much. they would have to scale it. What is the word called? For example if the man made $*,* in Nunavut and the female made *,* when the Nunavut wage is adjusted it would be close to or slightly higher to the Sask $*,* thus a more fair child support would be done.
Case Rating: *
Here are some key points to consider when looking for a lawyer experienced in common law and familiar with Nunavut:
- Experience: Look for a lawyer with substantial experience in family law and common law relationships.
- Familiarity with Nunavut: Ensure the lawyer understands the economic differences in Nunavut, including the cost of living adjustments.

*. Calculate the Ratio: Divide the cost of living index for Nunavut by the cost of living index for Saskatchewan.
*. Adjust the Wage: Multiply the Nunavut wage by the calculated ratio to get the adjusted wage for Saskatchewan.

Yes, in Nunavut where the male female lived it is not */* thus the male would be at a disadvantage if had a sask lawyer and not a nunavut lawyer correct?
Case Rating: *
In this situation, having a lawyer familiar with both Nunavut and Saskatchewan laws would be beneficial to address the differences in asset division. Since the case falls under Saskatchewan jurisdiction, a Saskatchewan lawyer is necessary but they should be informed about Nunavut's specifics.

Wait. if they lived all their lives together in Nunavut and went to school since grade school in Nunavut, now since the female moved to sask it all becomes a different. Something doesn't seem fair now.

I understand the complexity and challenges of your situation. It is indeed difficult when different jurisdictions with varying laws are involved. Here are some key points to consider:
- Jurisdiction: Since the case is being handled in Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan law will generally apply. However, the history in Nunavut and its laws can be relevant to the case.
- Legal Representation: A Saskatchewan lawyer with an understanding of Nunavut's unique aspects can help present a more equitable case.

Then could the male ask for the case be held in Nunavut, where they lived and the female has only lived full time in sask for 6 months.
Case Rating: *
The male can request for the case to be heard in Nunavut, especially since the majority of their relationship and the children's lives were spent there. He should argue that Nunavut courts would be more familiar with their situation and the local laws applicable to their case.

Re: Request for Jurisdiction Change - Case No. [Case Number]
Dear [Recipient's Name],
I am writing to formally request that the jurisdiction for our case be changed to Nunavut. The majority of our relationship and the upbringing of our children were spent in Nunavut, where both parties have deep-rooted connections. Given that the female has only resided in Saskatchewan for 6 months, it would be more appropriate and fair for the case to be heard in Nunavut, where the context and local laws are more applicable to our situation.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
