Our Legal Services

Licensed paralegals in Ontario can represent clients in Small Claims Court, the Ontario Court of Justice (for provincial offences and summary conviction criminal matters), administrative tribunals (including the Landlord and Tenant Board, Human Rights Tribunal, and WSIB), and before various regulatory bodies. They are regulated by the Law Society of Ontario.

Paralegals typically charge significantly less than lawyers — often 50–70% less — because they operate within a defined scope of practice and have lower overhead. For many legal matters such as traffic tickets, LTB hearings, and Small Claims Court, a paralegal can provide the same quality of representation at a fraction of the cost.

Yes — licensed paralegals can appear in court on your behalf for matters within their scope, including traffic court, Small Claims Court, and the Ontario Court of Justice for summary conviction offences. They can also represent you at tribunals and boards such as the Landlord and Tenant Board and Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario.
