Please leave a message if you reach our voicemail. We will return your call within 2 business days. Most people hear back from us sooner than that. If we have not contacted you after 2 business days, we might have had a problem with your contact information. It might have been muffled in your voicemail or there might have been a mistake with the number. Please call or email us again.

We will only call the person who left us the message. For safety and privacy reasons, please do not leave a message asking us to call a third party. If you are calling on behalf of a friend, family member, or client, please leave your name and contact information. We will contact you to determine how we can help the person.

In your message, please tell us:

• Your first name,
• The general subject or question,
• Your phone number (please say it twice), and
• The best time to reach you when we call back.

If you don’t want us to leave a message in your voicemail, please tell us in your message. Otherwise, we will leave a voicemail if we can’t reach you.

We operate the Family Law Information Line in partnership with the New Brunswick Department of Justice and Public Safety.
