We have practiced as a Small Claims Court paralegal for over twenty years. Over the years, we have represented plaintiffs and, of course, defendants alike in the Toronto Small Claims Court, Richmond Hill Small Claims Court, Brampton Small Claims Court, Newmarket Small Claims Court and other small claims courts in Ontario.
We have certainly encountered and handled small claims lawsuits and defences in a wide variety of situations. Generally, these cases can be put into these broad categories:
- Unpaid personal loans
- Compensation for faulty construction work
- Collection on unpaid invoices
- Breach of contract
- Defamation
- Injuries to a person or a pet, and, last but not least,
- Property damages.
Additionally, we have worked with the following types of matters dealing with a wide variety of situations, including, but not limited to:
- fraudulent activity in bank accounts
- ineffective car repairs
- real estate transactions that failed to close, or failed to close in time
- purchase of homes with major defects
- commercial and residential tenancies
- pet attacks on other pets or humans
- civil disputes with insurance companies following accidents
- private schooling
- partnership agreements
- private investments
- loan guarantors
- credit card debts
- loans or gifts given in the context of a romantic relationship
- and, of course, many more
As each matter is unique and may have its own specific caveats, it is essential to consider each case individually. Therefore, if you are involved in a Small Claims Court dispute and are considering retaining representation, please do not hesitate to contact us for a free case assessment.
