Abram prides himself on providing practical, cost-effective legal advice that detracts from unnecessary conflict and strives towards ultimate resolution. He regularly works with clients and other parties to reach negotiated resolutions or, where not possible, outcomes through the use of other non-judicial avenues like arbitration. Abram frequently acts as a mediator and an arbitrator, assisting parties in reaching resolution of division of property, parenting, and support matters.

With nearly a decade of civil and commercial litigation experience, he also brings a strong litigation background with significant courtroom experience, having appeared before all levels of Alberta Courts, the Ontario Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court of Canada. Abram’s commercial litigation experience lends itself very well to the business complexities that often accompany family law.

Prior to starting his family law practice, Abram practiced first with a prominent national law firm, Blake Cassels & Graydon LLP, and then with a major Western Canadian regional firm, MLT Aikins LLP. He has experience working with all ranges of business structures, from sole proprietorships to complex multinational corporations, advising on a wide range of corporate/commercial matters, including shareholder disputes, employment issues, construction disputes and oil and gas litigation.

Great experience working with Abram. Professional and thoughtful with good insights.
Relaxed and to the point team. Helped me when I panicked to stay calm and then walked me through things. Really friendly and always available
Very satisfied with the services provided by the lawyers at SVR Lawyers! It was a long and convoluted divorce process, but Abram Averbach, Cindy Lee and their assistants have helped me to navigate through it and finalize it. I highly recommend them!
