Supervised access with families is based on having access to a location for a visit, typically a supervised access centre and the employed supervisors that are there to assist and monitor the visits. With everything being shut down for at least a two week period, what happens to scheduled supervised access visits?

The health and safety of our clients, potential clients, contacts, friends, staff and colleagues is SMP Law’s top priority during this period of uncertainty surrounding the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). Our office is open and all of our services are continuing as usual.

In a recent situation with a Toronto Long Term Care Facility, the care facility refused to allow my client to take her mother home for visits and refused her wishes to bring her mother home permanently to care for her on her own.

Happy New Year! As we reflect on 2019 and move into 2020, we take a brief look at some of SMP Law’s case results for 2019. SMP Law had some memorable cases in 2019 and we look forward to 2020!

SMP Law wishes everyone a safe and happy holiday season. Please be advised that we will be closed for the Christmas Holidays effective 12:00p.m. on Friday, December 20th, 2019 through to 9:00a.m. on Monday, January 6th, 2020.
