Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?
The fee is $175 plus 13% HST ($197.75 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.
Will you speak for me at the hearing?
Not under coaching. You present your own case and we help you prepare. If you later want representation, that can be arranged under a separate retainer.
Who is responsible for filings and deadlines?
You are, under a coaching arrangement. We help you understand what is due and when.
General information only, not legal advice. NEO Legal Services Professional Corporation is a licensed paralegal firm regulated by the Law Society of Ontario.
Important limitations
- Advice is based on the information and documents you provide at the time
- Until a retainer is signed, you remain responsible for your own deadlines
- No outcome can be guaranteed
- Advice is limited to matters a licensed paralegal is permitted to handle; if your question, or part of it, needs a lawyer, we tell you and can refer you to one.
