Getting Married
in Oshawa?
Protect What You Built First.
Oshawa built its identity around GM and the auto industry, and a lot of the marriage contracts we draft here involve a pension, seniority-based benefits, or long-tenure employment earned before the marriage that deserves careful protection. Legal Solutions Law Firm represents Oshawa clients at the Lieutenant-Colonel Samuel S. Sharpe Courthouse, with a free consultation and flat fees for straightforward agreements.
Oshawa Marriage Contract Representation
Clear, Enforceable Agreements
If you built up pension credits or seniority-based benefits before this marriage, a marriage contract can specify exactly how that pre-marriage value is treated if the marriage ends, rather than leaving a complex pension valuation to be fought over later.
Oshawa has diversified with Ontario Tech University and Durham College bringing in younger residents, and we draft marriage contracts for both long-tenured auto-industry employees and younger couples starting out. Where a marriage contract's validity is ever contested, this courthouse handles family law proceedings for all of Durham Region.

We negotiate terms with the other side’s lawyer where needed, working toward an agreement both parties genuinely understand and accept.
We ensure both parties receive separate, independent legal advice — essential to the agreement standing up if it is ever challenged.

From My Experience: Oshawa Clients Benefit From Starting Early
A lot of the Oshawa clients I draft marriage contracts for have a pension built up over years with GM or another long-tenure employer, and protecting the pre-marriage portion of that pension is usually the single most valuable thing the agreement does.
The marriage contracts that hold up best years later are the ones signed with time to spare before the wedding, with full financial disclosure and a separate lawyer advising each side — not the ones rushed through the week of the ceremony. Knowing how the Lieutenant-Colonel Samuel S. Sharpe Courthouse actually treats these agreements when they are challenged means we can draft yours to withstand exactly that kind of scrutiny.
