Criminal & Family Law Intersection Services

Family and criminal law often overlap in complex and sensitive ways. When a family dispute escalates into the criminal justice system, the outcome can have lasting effects on parenting, custody, access, and financial arrangements. At Faiz and Associates Law Professional Corporation, we understand how critical it is to navigate both areas of law with care, strategy, and compassion.

How Criminal and Family Law Intersect

Domestic Disputes & Charges: Allegations of assault, threats, or harassment between spouses or partners often trigger criminal proceedings while simultaneously affecting family court matters such as custody or separation.

Bail & Parenting Orders: Bail conditions may prevent contact with a partner or children, directly impacting access and parenting rights.

Child Protection Concerns: Criminal charges can involve or trigger Children’s Aid Society (CAS) involvement, complicating custody and access.

Restraining & Protection Orders: Family law protection orders often need to be harmonized with criminal release conditions to avoid conflicts.

Why You Need Experienced Counsel

Handling one side of the case without understanding the other can create serious risks. For example, a bail condition might inadvertently restrict your parenting rights, or family court testimony may influence a criminal trial. We provide integrated advice and representation to ensure that your rights are fully protected in both systems.

Our Approach

  • Coordinated strategy between family and criminal proceedings.
  • Proactive communication to prevent conflicting court orders.
