How a referral works

- 2We recommend an Ontario lawyer for your matter, and at least one other you could choose instead.
- 3The lawyer runs their own conflict check, confirms the scope and quotes the fee, normally in a written retainer agreement.
- 4You pay the lawyer's fee to the lawyer. Any referral fee comes out of it, is disclosed to you in writing, and never increases what you pay.

Frequently asked questions
What does the lawyer charge?
A typical Ontario fee for this service is $600–$2,000, plus HST. The lawyer quotes the actual fee before any work starts. You pay the lawyer directly; the referral itself costs you nothing.
Do I have to disclose sponsored posts?
Yes. Canadian advertising law and industry guidelines expect a clear disclosure of any material connection, such as payment, gifted products or other benefits.
Can a brand keep using my content after the campaign?
Only as the agreement allows. Usage rights, how long they last and where content can appear should be clearly set out.
General information only, not legal advice. NEO Legal Services Professional Corporation is a licensed paralegal firm regulated by the Law Society of Ontario.
