Getting legal help

The Law Society regulates the lawyers and licensed paralegals of Ontario in the public interest and ensures that they meet appropriate standards of professional competence and conduct. There is information available for clients on how to work with their lawyer as well as how to make a complaint against a legal professional.

Common Questions

I was charged with a crime and my parents are paying for a criminal lawyer to help me fight the charges. Since I’m a minor and my parents are paying, can my parents find out what I tell the lawyer?
