I work with amicably separating couples as well as those considering marriage or cohabitation. At the heart of my work is my belief that my clients deserve compassionate, legal advice and a dignified, legal process. I always strive to offer customized, practical solutions for clients undergoing separation and divorce in order to arrive at an out-of-court settlement. For clients negotiating the terms of a committed relationship, I provide expert advice on creating a durable Cohabitation Agreement or a Marriage Contract. I also help all my clients get their affairs in order by drafting their Wills and Powers of Attorney as they transition to a new phase of life.In my professional circles, I currently serve as the Vice-Chair of the Collaborative Divorce Toronto (CDT) Board of Directors and the Chair of CDT’s Equity Diversity and Inclusion Committee. I am also a member of the Ontario Association of Collaborative Professionals and the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals.Prior to law school, I earned a Master of Arts degree in art history then worked with art professionals, thereby accumulating considerable experience implementing creative solutions that result in highly effective outcomes for my clients. I speak French and Korean as well as read and understand Spanish and Italian. I believe that my experience with creative professionals and my proficiency in languages have given me a unique insight and competency in culture, communication and negotiation.On weekends, I like to play tennis and golf in the summer; ski in the winter; and salsa dance all year-round. I grew up in Toronto and raised two great kids in the GTA. One is now an LGBTQ advocate / writer on Saturday Night Live in New York and the other an aspiring filmmaker / coder, based in Toronto (evidently neither in law!).If you would like to have a consultation with one of our team members please give us a call: (289) 275-8039.Canada’s National Newspaper the Globe & Mail has listed Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers as one of Canada’s Best Law Firms for 2022.

I provide advice and guidance to clients that is focused on my clients and their children’s interests and needs.After practicing as a family law litigator for over thirteen years, I felt compelled to focus my practice on providing clients with alternative dispute resolution options. I witnessed, first-hand, the financial and emotional cost of litigation on families, especially children. As such, I obtained my training to become a certified collaborative family law practitioner as well as certification and accreditation for family mediation. I am passionate about facilitating fair and reasonable settlements for my clients both as a collaborative family law practitioner and as a mediator.Although my primary approach is to encourage, facilitate and assist my clients with reaching fair and reasonable settlements, I realize that there are a minority of cases that require the intervention of the Court. I have assisted and represented clients in court before the Superior Court of Justice, the Unified Family Court and Ontario Court of Justice throughout the Greater Toronto Area, including Toronto, Vaughan/Newmarket, Mississauga/Brampton, Milton, Oshawa, Hamilton, Collingwood and Barrie.

We know there are many divorce lawyers in Concord. And we can’t tell you how happy we are that you provided us with such valuable feedback.Here is some more information from our Associate Lawyer, Alex De Melo:I am an associate lawyer at Russell Alexander Collaborative Family Lawyers. My approach to law is to see clients as people first and gain context from them in order to tailor my approach to analyzing and resolving their legal issues.I understand that each person and each family will have their own unique circumstances and I adopt the best approach for each client, whether that requires collaborative negotiation or litigation in court. I have experience in the areas of decision making for children, parenting time, child support, spousal support, enforcement of arrears with the Family Responsibility Office, divorce, equalization of assets and child protection. I have both trial and appeal experience on complex legal issues, having appeared before both the Ontario and Superior Courts of Justice. I was also appointed to the Office of the Children’s Lawyer panel to represent children in court.I obtained my undergraduate degree from the University of Toronto majoring in Criminology and Classics, with a minor in World Literature. During my undergraduate degree, I held summer positions as a Business Law Policy Analyst for the Government of Ontario and with the Crown Attorney’s Office under the Ministry of the Attorney General.I was called to the Ontario Bar in 2013, after obtaining my law degree from University of Ottawa’s Faculty of Law. During law school, I exhausted all courses in family law including Advanced Family Law, Collaborative Family Law and Children and the Law. I customized academic learning opportunities outside the regular curriculum and completed two professor directed research papers: judicial discretion in the family law courts and an international adoption case study. I also completed a major research paper on legal remedies for breaches in domestic contracts.Prior to joining Russell Alexander, I was legal counsel for Children’s Aid Society in the regions of Peel and Toronto. My experience in child protection and representing an institutional litigant gave me insights on the impact of conflict on children and disruption within the family unit. I was litigating in court on a frequent basis, routinely managing crisis and time-sensitive legal matters. Prior to being Society counsel, I was a Staff Family and Child Protection Lawyer for Legal Aid Ontario and this gave me exposure to a very diverse clientele with complex circumstances.When I’m not practicing law, I’m volunteering with children, checking out the film scene, skiing, playing tennis, or experimenting with ingredients in a kitchen. If I did not go to law school, I would have gone to culinary school as I am passionate about food equally as much as the law.TESTIMONIAL“The lawyer we spoke to, Alex De Melo, was very professional but also very personable.
