FAQ
Common questions
What is a licensed paralegal?
A licensed paralegal is licensed by the Law Society of Ontario to provide certain legal services, including representing clients in Small Claims Court and before tribunals such as the Licence Appeal Tribunal. Paralegals are not lawyers, and their services are limited to the scope set by the Law Society.
What types of injury claims can you help with?
Statutory accident benefits disputes (other than catastrophic impairment claims), and injury claims such as minor injury or slip-and-fall cases where the amount claimed is $50,000 or less, the current Small Claims Court limit.
What if my claim is worth more than $50,000?
Claims above the Small Claims limit must be brought in the Superior Court of Justice, where a paralegal cannot represent you. In that case, or if your matter is otherwise outside paralegal scope, Victoria may refer you to a lawyer.
Is the first consultation really free?
Yes. The initial consultation is free and carries no obligation. If you decide to proceed, fees will be explained and confirmed in writing before any work begins.
Are there deadlines for injury claims?
Yes. Many claims have strict time limits, and some accident benefits deadlines are very short. Contacting a licensed professional early helps protect your options.
Can you guarantee a result?
No. Every claim depends on its own facts, and no outcome can be guaranteed. Victoria will give you an honest assessment and work carefully on your behalf.
