Why Motherhood-At-Law?
In 2021, I went to some major life transitions – not only giving birth to our first child, but also preparing to move from Ontario, Canada to Iowa, USA for my partner’s career in science. Since then, I navigated changes to my legal career while maintaining my law practice in Ontario, returned to Ottawa in 2025 with our second newborn, formed a partnership at a law firm in 2026, and have been I am navigating the challenges on a legal career and managing a firm while having two young kids.
Motherhood-At-Law is a blog about how I have navigated – and will navigate – these transitions, with a sprinkling of fun, such as travel tips, gardening/plant lady things, home design/decor, reviews, and recipes I enjoy.
As I am a family lawyer licensed in Ontario, on this blog I will also discuss some topics in the area of family law such as tips for navigating a separation, family adoptions, fertility law, and what to consider when moving in together.
Nothing in this blog constitutes legal advice.
