James S. Marks, Family Lawyer
Toronto Divorce Lawyer

With a Masters degree in family law, and more than 20 years of practice as a family lawyer in Toronto, I’ve helped a wide variety of clients successfully manage complex divorce situations that included high income earners, extensive real estate portfolios, business evaluations, tough custody battles, and complicated employment scenarios. I have represented clients throughout Ontario and I have appeared at all levels of court in Ontario, including the Ontario Court of Appeal (see Court decisions). 

I’ve developed an expertise in international family law conflicts and Hague Applications (see the page on Hague Applications). I have obtained orders for the return of wrongfully withheld children in Canada to their parents in Australia, Botswana, Italy, Sweden, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, and United States of America. I have also obtained orders for the return of wrongfully withheld children in Bulgaria and India to Canada.. In addition, I’ve testified as an expert in U.S. Federal Court. If you are a parent whose child has been abducted, you should act as quickly as possible.

My boutique family law firm is proud to provide you with an exceptional level of knowledge, preparation and service. A good client-lawyer relationship is essential for successful outcomes and I strive to build this from our initial meeting. I provide fast responses, more personal attention, and am more focused on your individual, emotional and financial needs.

Most importantly, whether you’re involved in a separation, uncontested divorce, complex divorce, or child custody or access issue, I have the superior education and in-depth experience to help you resolve your case. I’m the Toronto family lawyer you want on YOUR side.
