There are many different kinds of tribunals that govern the running of society. Each one has its own act, rules, hearing procedures, penalties and appeal procedures. It is quite easy to run afoul with one or many during your life.

Paralegals specialize in representing at Tribunal hearings. We understand how to read and interpret the individual acts, as well as gathering evidence and analyzing the case. We then communicate with the individual tribunal and attempt to come to a resolution without needing a hearing. Ultimately if a hearing is needed, we are trained and experienced representing your interests before, during and after the hearing.
