The Family Court provides a forum for hearing issues relating to the family including maintenance, custody / access, family violence between spouses or between parent and child, and child protection matters. The Family Court sits only in communities outside the Regional Municipalities of Halifax and Cape Breton.
Family Court Forms:
The Courts website now offers some family law forms in an
"interactive" PDF format (you can fill them out on your computer)
If you live outside the Regional Municipalities of Halifax and Cape Breton and you are dealing with a family law matter other than divorce or division of property, you will go to Family Court.
