Services for Criminal Summary Offences
In Ontario, licensed paralegals are authorized to represent clients facing certain summary conviction offences under the Criminal Code. These charges, while considered less serious than indictable offences, can still carry significant consequences such as fines, probation, or a permanent criminal record. Having knowledgeable representation ensures that your rights are protected and that you have strong advocacy throughout the legal process. Disclaimer: Please note that a paralegal’s scope is limited. If you are charged with a more serious criminal offense, we will advise you to seek the services of a criminal lawyer.
