Over the years SMP Law has managed to create a collection of blogs covering topics related to family law, such as parental alienation, child support, parenting time, parenting plans, spousal support, and our notable cases each year, to name a few. We wanted to share some of our blogs over the years. Enjoy!

SMP Law is a proud supporter of the Terry Fox Run! The Terry Fox Run was scheduled for September 14, 2025 all across Canada. We hope everyone who participated enjoyed themselves raising money for such an important cause.

Shawn Philbert, lawyer at SMP Law attended the recent international conference in September 2025, hosted by the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC) on Advanced Issues in Child Custody. It was a 4-day conference with excellent speakers from all over the world.

SMP Law honours National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. SMP Law is wearing orange today to remember the Indigenous children whose lives were lost at residential schools. We honour the victims, survivors and the families and communities impacted. The orange shirt symbolizes the loss of culture, freedom, and self-esteem that many Indigenous children experienced.
