Our Services
We present our clients with the following services:
- The Small Claims Court is a branch of the Superior Court of Justice and handles nearly half of all civil claims in the province. If someone owed money, you can sue that person or business in Small Claims Court for $35,000 or less. For anything over $35,000.
If what you are owed is more than $35,000, you can still file in Small Claims Court if you are willing to waive the amount over $35,000.
- The Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) resolves:
- disputes between residential landlords and tenants
- eviction applications filed by non-profit housing co-operatives
- If you have residential disputes we try to solve them through negotiation with other party and if required represent you in the LTB
- Mediation and arbitration are ways that people can settle their disputes out of court.
- Mediation is a process for resolving disputes together. The people involved in a dispute meet and talk with the help of a mediator. The mediator will help the people define their problems so they can try to resolve them.
- Arbitration is a way for people to finally resolve disputes quickly, fairly, confidentially, and out of court. Parties agree to be bound by the decision of one or more independent and impartial arbitrators, usually chosen by the parties. An arbitrator receives submissions from both sides, conducts a fair hearing according to the rules of law, and – unlike a mediator – can render an enforceable decision.
