From not-knowing-where-to-start to a clear plan. In four stages.
Five-minute intake. Free. No credit card. Built for Ontario.
Before you begin
The shape of this guide.
Four things to know before the first step.
The path
Four stages, in order.
Each stage builds on the last. You can pause anywhere — Cairn keeps your place.
Tell us your situation
A short, calm intake collects the basics — children, court status, the issues you need to resolve, and any urgent concerns. Plain-language questions, one at a time. About five minutes.
See your options clearly
We explain the paths people in similar situations commonly take — with timelines, estimated costs, effort, and honest pros and cons. The decision is yours to make.
Follow your personalised plan
Your plan is broken into weekly steps across the five areas that matter: Legal, Parenting, Financial, Wellbeing, and Life Reset. Check things off as you go. Each completed step is a stone placed on the trail.
Prepare your documents
For Form 8, Form 13.1 (financial statement), and Form 35.1 (parenting affidavit), Cairn walks you through the content in plain language. You arrive at the courthouse or paralegal's office ready — not panicked.
Want a number first?
See your support numbers before you sign up.
Plug in two incomes and a parenting time arrangement. We'll show you what child and spousal support actually look like in Ontario, and what you'd have left in your account every two weeks. No email. No account.
