I assist clients in maintaining greater control over their lives by working with them to craft settlements that meet their own unique needs.

Sharon Silbert

I am a graduate of the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, where I obtained my law degree after completing undergraduate studies at the University of British Columbia and McMaster University.

I am accredited as a family mediator by the Ontario Associate for Family Mediation (OAFM), and I am a member of the Family Dispute Resolution Institute of Ontario (FDRIO), Collaborative Practice Niagara (CPN), the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC), the Lincoln County Law Association (LCLA), and the Law Society of Ontario (LSO).

I was called to the bar in 2010. Before I established my own practice, I honed my legal skills at a large national law firm in Toronto, and a boutique family law firm in Hamilton.

I have been a presenter in the Ministry of the Attorney General’s Mandatory Information Program for family law proceedings. I have also acted as a contributing editor for various titles of the legal encyclopedia Halsbury’s Laws of Canada, including the title on Family Law. I previously served on the board of directors for the Niagara Community Legal Clinic, and the executive for Collaborative Practice Niagara.

Before I decided to pursue a career in law, I was a culinary apprentice. I still love to cook.

My astrological “big three” are Aries sun, Aries moon, and Taurus rising.
