My Practice Areas Include

I represent both landlords and tenants in applications before the Landlord and Tenant Board. Whether you are initiating a proceeding or responding to one, I ensure your matter is prepared thoroughly and presented effectively.

For Landlords

I assist with preparing, filing, and representing you on applications including:

N4 – Non-payment of rent

N5 – Interference with reasonable enjoyment / damage

N6 – Illegal acts

N7 – Serious impairment of safety or damage

N8 – Persistent late payment of rent

N12 – Landlord’s own use

From notice stage to hearing representation, I help ensure compliance with the Residential Tenancies Act and procedural requirements.

For Tenants

Has your landlord:

• Failed to maintain the rental unit as required under the Residential Tenancies Act?

• Interfered with your reasonable enjoyment?

• Entered your unit improperly?

• Served an N12 in bad faith?

If you believe your rights under the Residential Tenancies Act have been violated, you may have grounds to respond or bring an application. I can assess your situation and advise you on the strength of your case.

If you believe you have a strong claim or need to defend one, get in touch to discuss your options.

Deadlines apply, and ignoring a ticket can result in automatic conviction, fines, demerit points, licence suspension, and increased insurance rates.

If you have received one ticket or multiple tickets, DO NOT WAIT. Early action can significantly impact the outcome of your case.

I defend clients charged under the Highway Traffic Act and other provincial offences, including:

• Speeding

• Careless driving

• Fail to stop

• Stunt driving

• Driving without insurance

• Driving while suspended

• G1 / G2 licence violations

• Distracted driving (handheld device)

• Fail to provide insurance

• And other traffic-related charges

Your Options After Receiving a Ticket

When you receive a traffic ticket, you generally have the right to:

• Request an Early Resolution Meeting to negotiate with the prosecutor

• Proceed to trial and require the prosecution to prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt

An early resolution meeting may allow for a negotiated reduction or withdrawal, depending on the circumstances. In other cases, proceeding to trial may be the strongest option.

Every case is different. The strength of the evidence, officer notes, disclosure, driving history, and surrounding circumstances all matter.

Why Representation Matters

Traffic charges can carry more than just a fine. They can affect:

• Your licence status

• Your insurance premiums

• Your employment (especially if driving is required)

• Your long-term driving record

If you have received multiple tickets, the consequences can escalate quickly. I can assist by reviewing your matter, advising you on your options, and representing you through early resolution discussions or at trial.

Whether you are starting a claim, defending one, or enforcing a judgment, I provide strategic and practical representation at every stage of the Small Claims Court process.

Legal disputes can be stressful and time-sensitive. Having proper guidance from the beginning can significantly impact the outcome of your case.

Starting a Claim

If you are owed money or have suffered financial loss, I can assist with:

• Assessing the strength of your claim

• Drafting and issuing the Plaintiff’s Claim

• Proper service of court documents

• Preparing supporting evidence and documentation

• Negotiation and settlement discussions

A well-prepared claim sets the foundation for success.

Defending a Claim

If you have been served with a Plaintiff’s Claim, deadlines apply. Ignoring it may result in default judgment against you.

I assist with:

• Reviewing the claim and identifying legal defences

• Drafting and filing a Defence

• Preparing evidence and witness strategy

• Settlement discussions and resolution opportunities

• Representation at settlement conferences and trial

Early intervention can often reduce risk and improve outcomes.

Settlement Conferences & Trial Representation

Many matters resolve before trial. I provide representation at:

• Settlement conferences

• Motions

• Trials

I ensure your position is clearly presented and supported by evidence.

Enforcement of Judgment

Obtaining judgment is not always the end of the process. If payment is not made voluntarily, enforcement steps may be necessary.

I can assist with:

• Garnishment proceedings

• Writs of seizure and sale

• Judgment debtor examinations

• Strategic enforcement planning

Disputes require preparation, clarity, and strategy. Whether you are initiating a claim or responding to one, I am here to guide you through each stage of the process.
