Ottawa Lawyers


You should be looking for someone who listens, identifies the relevant facts and the legal issues you face, and then assists you in analyzing your situation to provide the necessary legal advice you need to make an informed decision about your options.

Our goal is to listen, and then tell you about your rights, obligations and choices. We assist in fashioning a custom-tailored legal plan that is the best fit for you and your unique circumstances. After all, no two people are alike, and no two legal problems are identical. We are confident that you will find our personalized approach refreshing.

From drafting an agreement to appellate work, we handle all types of disputes with a focus on early dispute resolution. We practice in the following areas:
  • Family law, including custody and access (parenting), spousal and child support, equalization of property and domestic contracts;
  • Estates including wills and powers of attorney.
In addition, we are able to offer the most appropriate dispute resolution (ADR) tool for each case, e.g. negotiation, arbitration, mediation, Collaborative Family Law and when necessary, litigation. It is important for you to know that the method employed to resolve your dispute is as important as the legal issues themselves.

We provide our clients with the essential information needed to make an informed decision about their legal options, from both a substantive point of view, and a procedural one. At the Law Offices of Cecil J. Lyon, we work hard to tailor our approach to each unique set of circumstances. When appropriate, we may also recommend employing other specialists such as financial advisors, accountants, social workers, and psychologists, in order to provide a holistic approach to the resolution of issues.

OUR MANDATE:
  • To provide exceptional legal service;
  • To provide our services in a timely manner;
  • To provide each client with our fundamental approach of common sense and cost effective dispute analysis.
We are located in the heart of Kanata. Our clients appreciate our convenient location, ample parking and approachable, comfortable atmosphere.
