Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?
The fee is $2,000 plus 13% HST ($2,260.00 in all) for the work described on this page. Court, tribunal or government fees and other disbursements are extra. We confirm the scope and the fee in a written retainer agreement before any work starts.
What happens when I check out?
You book a time for your intake call, then save a card on Stripe's secure page. Nothing is charged today: the card is only charged later, for an invoice for work already done, as your retainer agreement sets out. A licensed paralegal confirms the details, checks for conflicts of interest and, if we can act for you, sends the retainer agreement. Fees paid before the work is done are held in our trust account.
What happens at a case conference?
A Tribunal member meets with both sides to discuss settlement, narrow the issues, and set the steps and dates for a hearing if the case does not settle.
Can a Tribunal decision be challenged?
You can ask the Tribunal to reconsider in limited situations. An appeal on a question of law, or a judicial review, goes to the Divisional Court, which needs a lawyer.
Is the hearing in person?
Many accident benefits hearings at the Tribunal are held by video or in writing. The Tribunal decides the format.

Important limitations
