Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost?+
The fee is $150 plus 13% HST ($169.50 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 if the signer is unwell or confused?+
The person must understand what they are signing. If that is in doubt, the commissioner may not be able to proceed.
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
The office receiving the document decides whether it accepts it
A document cannot be commissioned if identity cannot be confirmed or the signer does not understand it
Commissioning does not check or confirm the contents
The firm commissions and witnesses documents as Ontario law allows, but does not draft or advise on documents outside a licensed paralegal's scope, such as wills, powers of attorney or real estate documents; that work is referred to an Ontario lawyer.
