Services

Family Justice Centres operate across the province with staff available to assist you with issues related to separation or divorce, including: 

  • Parenting arrangements
  • Guardianship
  • Child and spousal support
  • Contact with a child
  • Property division respecting a companion animal

All services are provided free of charge to parents and other family members. Learn more about Family Justice Centre services or see:

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 Sechelt Family Justice Centre provides Early Resolution Registry services for the Sechelt Provincial Family Court registry.

The Sechelt 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.

Learn more about the Early Resolution Process, or see the list of Early Resolution Registries, filing locations and Family Justice Services Division (FJSD) offices for more information about:

  • Which Provincial Court registries are Early Resolution Registries
  • Where to file documents with each registry
