Experienced Guidance Through Difficult Situations

Family law is not just about legal process. It is about helping people move forward during some of the most stressful points in their lives.

Our team brings experience across divorce, parenting arrangements, and financial support matters. We approach every case with structure, attention to detail, and a clear focus on protecting what matters to you.

At Kurie Moore LLP, you will get direct answers, honest guidance, and a clear understanding of your options from the start.

What a Family Lawyer Can Help With

A family lawyer helps establish clear legal terms around children, finances, property, and future obligations after a relationship changes. The goal is to replace uncertainty with enforceable structure.

Many family law matters involve more than one issue at the same time. Parenting, support, and property division often need to be resolved together, not in isolation.

Each situation is different. Our role is to help you understand your rights and take the next step with confidence.

We assist with a wide range of family law matters, including:

Divorce and separation
Child support and spousal support
Separation agreements
Enforcement of support or parenting terms
Child custody and parenting arrangements
Property division and financial matters
Variations of existing court orders
Independent legal advice

What Family Law Matters Often Involve

Family law matters in Edmonton often involve more than just legal documents. They involve real-life decisions that affect day-to-day life.

Common situations include:

Parents working through custody and parenting schedules
Disagreements around child or spousal support
Dividing shared assets and financial responsibilities
Adjusting agreements as circumstances change over time

Local court processes, timelines, and expectations also play a role in how these matters move forward. Having guidance that reflects how these cases actually unfold in Edmonton can make a meaningful difference.

A Clear Path Through the Legal Process

Here’s what working with a family lawyer typically looks like:

1

Initial Conversation

We start by understanding your situation and identifying what matters most to you.

2

Assessing Your Position

You’ll get a clear explanation of your legal standing and what options are available.

3

Developing a Plan

We outline a practical approach based on your goals, whether that involves negotiation or court proceedings.

4

Moving Toward Resolution

We guide you through each step, ensuring everything is handled properly and aligned with your best interests.

The goal is to reduce uncertainty and give you a structured way forward.

Know When to Get Legal Guidance

You should speak with a family lawyer if:

You are separating or considering separation
There are questions about custody or parenting time
You are unsure how support payments work
An agreement is being proposed and you need to review it
You feel uncertain about your rights or next steps

Even early guidance can prevent larger issues later.

How Family Law Matters Are Resolved: Resolution Options in Family Law

Family law matters can move forward in different ways depending on the situation.

Common approaches include:

1
Negotiation
Reaching an agreement directly between parties with legal guidance
2

Court Proceedings
 When an agreement cannot be reached, the court may decide the outcome

The focus is always on reaching a practical resolution that reflects your situation and protects your interests.

Frequently Asked Questions

Family law covers matters such as divorce, custody, and support. The process depends on whether an agreement can be reached or if court involvement is required.

As early as possible. Early guidance helps you understand your position and avoid decisions that may impact you later.

Scott is an outstanding lawyer who went above and beyond to handle my case with professionalism and confidence. From the start, he made me feel reassured and kept me informed every step of the way. His knowledge of the law, attention to detail, and strong negotiation skills really showed, especially when it mattered most. Because of his dedication and strategic approach, he was able to get my charges withdrawn, which completely changed my situation for the better. I truly appreciate how hard he fought for me and the way he stood in my corner—he’s someone you can trust when everything is on the line. Amber, Scott’s assistant, was absolutely amazing throughout my entire experience. She was always on top of everything and made sure I stayed informed every step of the way. Anytime there was an update, she reached out quickly and clearly explained what was going on, which really helped reduce my stress. She was professional, organized, and genuinely cared about making sure I understood the process. Having someone so reliable and responsive made a huge difference, and I’m really grateful for how supportive she was the whole time.

The matter that popped up for me was very unexpected, and a complete surprise over Christmas holidays. I had two uncomfortable weeks to sit on ice during the time between Christmas and the New Year when everything’s rightfully closed. I was pretty wound up already over that prolonged timeframe, being ready to speak to someone on my behalf. When Kurie Moore LLP opened again, Scott called me back very promptly and agreed to take my case. My nerves disappeared.. His work for me was very accurate, knowledgeable, and he had my charges withdrawn. My record is clear as it should be. Scott has confident, professionally authoritative, powerful energy that is an absolute asset in his line of work. He also patiently took the time to explain everything to me in lengthy phone call conversations. I never felt rushed out of the conversation or talked to with anything other than respect. Scott gives his full attention to you and your case. He said he’d get this all sorted for me, and he meant it! His office team is also very well run, with excellent communication, administration and response time. It’s a very refreshing and warm feeling to be able to trust someone fully with such a personal, important experience. I sat back with little stress and let Scott run the show in full trust, which can be a challenge for me in these important, personal circumstances. I’d hire him and his team again in a heartbeat. If you need someone to handle your issue in one of life's most highly stressful areas, he’s the man to call.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I cannot recommend Methal Fayad highly enough. From the very beginning, I was under an overwhelming amount of stress — emotionally, mentally, and physically. I felt like my entire life was hanging in the balance, and I honestly didn’t know how I was going to get through it. What I was facing felt impossible, and the anxiety was constant. I wasn’t sleeping, I wasn’t thinking clearly, and I felt completely stuck. Then I hired Methal Fayad, and everything changed. In a matter of weeks — weeks — he managed to get everything withdrawn. What felt like a situation that could have followed me for the rest of my life was resolved faster than I ever thought possible. The relief I felt was indescribable. He quite literally saved my future. Methal is not only incredibly knowledgeable and sharp as a lawyer, but he is also calm, professional, and reassuring. He explained everything clearly, kept me informed every step of the way, and made me feel like I was truly being taken care of. When I was overwhelmed and stressed beyond belief, he remained confident and focused, which gave me hope when I had none. What stood out the most was how efficient and strategic he is. There was no wasted time, no unnecessary back-and-forth — just decisive action and results. You can tell immediately that he knows exactly what he’s doing and genuinely cares about protecting his clients. If you are looking for a lawyer in Edmonton who is competent, compassionate, and absolutely relentless in fighting for you, Methal Fayad is the one. I am beyond grateful for what he has done for me, and I will never forget the impact he had on my life. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone who needs strong legal representation. Thank you, Methal — I truly don’t know where I’d be without you. ✨✨✨✨✨
