Arrest Records


Are you facing criminal charges and looking for ways to save on legal fees? It can be a daunting task to find a paralegal that works within your budget. However, there are a few steps you can take to ensure that you get the best legal representation while still saving money.


The first step is to do your research. Look into different firms and compare prices. Make sure that you are getting the best representation for your money. Also, check reviews of the paralegals you are considering to make sure that they have a good reputation.


Another way to save money is to settle out of court. This can be beneficial if you have a strong case and are willing to negotiate. This can help to avoid costly court fees and legal fees. It’s important to consult with a legal professional before making any decisions about settling out of court.


You can also save money by being organized. Make sure that you have all your documents and evidence organized and ready for your paralegal to review. This will help to save time and money in the long run.


Finally, consider working with a Legal Aid Ontario (LAO). If you can’t afford a private defence, you may qualify for free legal representation from a Legal Aid Ontario. It’s important to note that these services are limited, so it’s important to make sure that they have the time and resources to properly represent you.


By following these tips, you can save money on legal fees while still getting the best representation. Do your research, settle out of court, be organized, and consider applying to Legal Aid Ontario. By doing so, you can make sure that you get the best legal representation while still saving money.

Team Access

We work closely with our clients to ensure that they are fully informed and comfortable with every aspect of their case. We believe in empowering our clients to make decisions about their cases, and we will not make any decision without first consulting you.

Constant Support

Our mission is to help you find a solution for every credit challenge. Our team of trained professionals strives to make every interaction with us as pleasant, informative and rewarding as possible. We look forward to assisting you in any way we can!

01

Free Consultation

The first step is to understand what you want, identify how we can meet your expectations, and then provide the most personalized experience for you. For us to succeed—and establish trust between us—we need personal interactions with each of our clients: If that's something that interests you, get in touch today!

Billing Methods

We offer several billing options in addition to hourly rates. Depending on your budget, you may want a monthly invoice; for others, it's better to go with a retainer agreement or unbundled services. Flat-rate packages are often used by businesses when they have a small number of cases to handle, while personal injury law firms usually work on contingency.

Sliding Scale

Due to budget restrictions, many people cannot afford legal services. If a client qualifies for a discount on our services, we are more than happy to provide those services at that reduced rate. For more information about our People Before Profits program, please click here. The factors we consider include both income and family size—which matters because some households have a greater capacity to pay for programs than others


04

Payment Options

By taking advantage of our in-house financing, you can set up a payment plan that fits within your budget and schedule. Depending on what kind of terms are most important to you—down payment, frequency or duration—we'll be able to create a flexible plan that works for you. We guarantee that there are no hidden fees or credit checks. All major credit cards, Interac, e-transfers and cash payments are accepted.

DISBURSEMENTS

The final bill will change as a result.

When you see "plus disbursements" on your legal bill, it's natural to worry. Legal disbursements refer to any expenses incurred by the firm that are related—however tenuously—to your case.


In most cases, lawyers charge separately for filing fees, process server fees, and long-distance tolls. Disbursements are widely accepted in the legal profession as a legitimate expense separate from other billing rates.


Disbursements can be one of the trickiest parts of creating a budget. When you do it right, though, no one will ever know that your final costs were in fact reasonable and necessary. We will do all we can to help you avoid paying high legal fees, even if that means forgoing some of our usual fees.
