Navigating a Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) matter can be overwhelming — especially if you're trying to do it on your own. Whether you’re a landlord or a tenant, even a small mistake can lead to serious consequences like case dismissal, delays, or financial penalties.
Here’s what often goes wrong for self-represented parties:
- They use the wrong forms (like mixing up N5 with N4 or N12)
- They fail to serve documents properly, missing legal requirements
- They miss hearing dates or misunderstand timelines
- They say the wrong thing during mediation or hearings, damaging their credibility or case
These are not minor errors — they can cost you your case.
That’s where a licensed paralegal comes in.
A paralegal is trained in LTB procedures, the Residential Tenancies Act, and tribunal advocacy.
From the very beginning, we protect your legal interests by:
- Ensuring the correct forms are filed and served
- Managing strict deadlines and notice periods
- Representing you in hearings and settlement discussions
- Avoiding language or admissions that could be used against you
You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression at the LTB.
Letting a paralegal guide and represent you means you stay compliant, confident, and in control. Instead of gambling with your case, you get peace of mind knowing a legal professional is handling the process from start to finish.
Save time. Reduce stress. Avoid mistakes.
