Our partners, Gary Joseph, William Abbott, Georgina Carson, Geoffrey Wells, Michael Stangarone and Kristy Maurina, bring a wealth of experience and skills to the practice. Many have practiced for decades, and bring unique backgrounds and fields of expertise. Gary Joseph, certified specialist in Family Law leads our family law practice as partner and chair of MacDonald & Partners LLP.

Our lawyers are skilled and dedicated practitioners of alternative dispute resolution, but we are also tenacious litigators. Our decisions have been widely reported in legal publications, and we have appeared at every level of court, including Appeals Court and the Supreme Court of Canada.

Partners and Associates are  devoted to legal education. We have published several books used by other lawyers, taught at bar admission courses, participated in numerous educational and professional development organizations and events. Our lawyers also publish articles intended to educate the general public in matters of family law, and they have appeared on CBC Radio, Canada AM and other media to speak on these issues.

Gary Joseph and Stephen Kirby will be speaking at the 2018 National Family Law Conference in Vancouver (July 8-12)
