Family/Divorce Law
We prevent and resolve conflicts through communication, negotiation, and where necessary through litigation.
Our Core Philosophy
Resolutions with Integrity
Our Core Mission
Informed Choice and objective decision making
Family law encompasses a wide range of legal issues and we are here to eliminate the confusion and overwhelming feelings while guiding and protecting your interests before, during and at the end of a relationship.
Relationships are emotional. When emotions are involved, rational decision-making can be compromised and costly mistakes are often made. We are here to be your objective mind and help you think through difficult decisions with your head, not your heart. We don’t want your anger, hurt, passion or love clouding your judgement when important decisions regarding yourself and your children are at stake. We look out for your best interests and guide you to make informed choices and create clear plans now and for the future.

Our Team
About Smith & Little LLP
Christine and Kelly are proud to work together in a true partnership and offer the benefit of two minds to all of our clients. We are strongly of the view that two minds are better than one and if a partnership is able to capitalize on the strengths of each individual partner there will be huge advantages flowing to the client. Having spent our first years as lawyers figuring out what pieces of the job we each enjoy the best, we determined that there were certain tasks we enjoyed more than others. Luckily for us our strengths are complementary and while we are able to trade off and step in for each other when required, we like to each perform the tasks we enjoy the most as often as possible.
