For professionals

Be one of the first professionals here.

DivorceMaybe is an anonymous, free community for people in BC who are separating, unsure, or rebuilding after — with a directory of counselors and family lawyers checked against their regulator. We're opening in Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley, and inviting a small group of founding professionals to list first.

How the pilot works

You give us

  • Your Law Society of BC or college registration number
  • The practice or focus areas you regularly work in, your languages and city
  • Your OK on the finished listing — nothing goes live without it

We do

  • Check your registration by hand against the public registry
  • Publish your listing with the Verified badge
  • Pass members' messages to you privately — members use display names, and our email notices never include message text
  • Pause or remove your listing whenever you ask

We'd ask

  • Honest feedback on the experience while we build
  • Optionally, general answers in the forum's "Ask a pro" thread — general information only, never soliciting

Free consultation toggle

Show members you offer a free first conversation. Messaging you through the site is always free for members.

Firm pages

Show your whole practice on one page, with each professional's own verified listing.

Verified badge

Every lawyer and counselor is checked before they go public, so members know who they're talking to.

Who you'll reach

People in our community forum and visitors from our social channels who are looking for help with separation — often in their own language.

Lawyers & law firms

Free listing for lawyers

Family lawyers list free. Paid lawyer plans aren't offered yet — they will only open after the Law Society of BC has confirmed our flat-fee model, and they will only ever be a flat monthly listing fee.

We don't describe any lawyer as a "specialist", and listings show only the practice areas you regularly practise. Any paid placement will always be labelled as paid.

Counselors & therapists

Flat monthly listing fees in Canadian dollars, after your free period. Free for your first 3 months at launch; founding counselors may get longer. Premium placement is always labelled as paid.

Simple flat fees — no referral cut

You pay a flat monthly listing fee and keep 100% of every fee you earn. We never take a commission on your client work and never charge a per-client referral fee.

For lawyers and law firms this is deliberate: paying a non-lawyer a share of legal fees or a fee per referred client runs against the Law Society of BC rules on fee-sharing and referral fees. DivorceMaybe is an advertising platform — a flat listing fee, like any directory or publication — so your listing stays fully compliant.

Optional add-on for counselors: featured keyword slots from $49–$89 / month for top placement on a specific city, focus or language page (always labelled as paid).

Counselors may optionally enable in-platform booking with a small convenience fee (10%) on sessions booked through the site; that's never applied to legal services. All prices in CAD. Current launch pricing — final terms ship before billing turns on. Questions? Get in touch.

Know a colleague who'd be a good fit?

Most professionals hear about us from someone they trust. If you know a counselor or family lawyer who should be here, send them this page — the more good professionals on DivorceMaybe, the more people we can help.
