Barbara Read-Greenan Lawyer

Barbara was called to the Bar of British Columbia 20 years ago, and the High Court of New Zealand, 18 years ago. Currently she is practicing exclusively in Canada as a family law lawyer and mediator, and she also accepts criminal instruction. A retired contractor to the Attorney General commissioned to act on behalf of the Ministry of Child and Family Development, Barbara is familiar with all aspects of Family Law including allocation of parenting time and responsibilities, analysis of support obligations, and the division of family debts and property. Barbara is experienced at drafting agreements, engaging in alternative dispute resolution processes, and litigation. The foundation of her practice is compassion, integrity and efficiency. She appreciates her clients require her assistance during what is for most of them one of the most trying, and costly, periods of their lives, with their primary assets at risk and their children caught in the fray. She endeavors to ensure her client experience as smooth and straightforward a transition from married to single life, removing complexities, making the shift as effortless as possible for her clients.
