Staff can help you assess what you need and provide information about:
- Your legal and related issues (including referrals for legal advice)
- Dispute resolution and mediation options (including court forms and processes)
- Referrals to community resources and agencies
All Centres have Family Justice Counsellors (accredited mediators) who can provide a full range of services virtually through telephone and video conferencing, so services are available even if there is no Family Justice Centre or Justice Access Centre in your community. Virtual services are also available for families who are separated by distance.
Early Resolution Registry services
Family Justice Centres also provide services that are part of the Provincial Court process. The Kelowna Family Justice Centre provides Early Resolution Registry services for the Kelowna Provincial Family Court registry.
The Kelowna Provincial Court registry is an Early Resolution Registry. Early Resolution Registries have Early Resolution Requirements for families who want to resolve a family law matter. These requirements include a needs assessment with a Family Justice Counsellor.
