British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Saleknia v. Hadjiahmadi, 2013 BCSC 1791 (CanLII):

He says that the benefits that he conferred on her far outweigh whatever contribution she claims to have made to the accumulation of his wealth. He refers to Qualtrough Estate v. Legge, 2009 BCSC 26 and says that one must look at the totality of the relationship and the benefits conferred on each other during the relationship.
