This policy explains what personal information ForeignDivorceOpinion.com, a service of ABALAW, collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. We handle your documents with the same care a law office is held to.
Information we collect
When you start a document review or contact us, we collect the details you provide: your name, contact information, and the documents relevant to your foreign divorce, such as your divorce certificate, marriage certificate, and identification.
We also collect limited technical information, such as your browser type and pages visited, to keep the site secure and working well.
How we use your information
We use your information solely to assess your matter, prepare your legal opinion, communicate with you, and meet our professional and legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information.
How we store and protect it
Your documents are handled through secure, access-controlled systems. Access is limited to the people working on your matter. We retain records for the period required by our professional obligations, then dispose of them securely.
When we share information
We share information only where necessary to provide the service, for example with a certified translator you have engaged, or where required by law or professional rules. We will tell you when sharing is needed.
Your choices and rights
You may ask what information we hold about you, request a correction, or ask us to delete information we are not required to keep. To make a request, contact us using the details on our contact page.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date above reflects the most recent revision. Material changes will be noted on this page.

These terms govern your use of ForeignDivorceOpinion.com. By using the site you agree to them. They do not create a lawyer-client relationship on their own.
Use of this website
This website provides general information about foreign divorce recognition in Canada and a way to begin a document review. You agree to use it lawfully and not to misuse the intake or contact tools.
No lawyer-client relationship
Submitting information through this site does not by itself create a lawyer-client relationship. That relationship begins only when we confirm it in writing and any required engagement steps are complete.
Information is not legal advice
The articles, FAQs, and other content on this site are general information, not legal advice for your situation. An opinion specific to you is provided only after a document review.
Intellectual property
The content, branding, and design of this site are the property of ABALAW and may not be copied or reused without permission.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, ABALAW is not liable for decisions made solely on the basis of general site content before a formal opinion is provided.

Please read this disclaimer carefully. It clarifies the nature of the information on this site and the limits of what it can do for you before you formally engage us.
General information only
Everything on ForeignDivorceOpinion.com is intended as general information about the recognition of foreign divorces in Canada. Laws and individual circumstances vary, and outcomes depend on your specific facts.
Results are not guaranteed
Whether a foreign divorce is recognized in Canada depends on the law and your documents. We cannot guarantee a particular outcome, and any timelines mentioned are typical estimates, not promises.
Jurisdiction
Opinions are prepared by an Ontario family lawyer under Canadian law. If your matter involves issues outside our scope, we will tell you and, where possible, point you in the right direction.
Reliance
Do not act or refrain from acting based solely on site content. Begin a document review so your situation can be assessed properly before you rely on any conclusion.
