In Ontario, paralegals can only represent clients in Small Claims Court, which operates as a branch of the Superior Court of Justice. This court handles monetary disputes and claims for the return of property valued up to $35,000 but does not have the authority to issue injunctions (orders requiring someone to act or refrain from acting). If your claim slightly exceeds $35,000, you may choose to waive the excess amount to stay within the Small Claims Court’s jurisdiction. This option can offer several advantages.
The procedures in Small Claims Court are less complex, the associated fees are more affordable, and the resolution time is generally shorter. A paralegal skilled in small claims cases can represent you competently. Paralegals often work for fixed fees that are more economical than those of lawyers, which can significantly reduce your legal costs.
We handle cases involving fraud, property damage, breach of contract, defamation, and credit restoration. We ensure that you receive expert guidance from a paralegal experienced in small claims.
