***WE HAVE MOVED****As of June 21, 2021, our office is now located at 700 Dorval Drive, Suite 400, Oakville, ON which is the building next to our previous location.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you located? I’m on Dorval, but I can’t find the building.: Our address is Unit 400-700 Dorval Drive, but the driveway entrance is located off of Wyecroft Road.

Are you Legal Aid?: Our clinic is funded by Legal Aid Ontario but we are governed by an independent Board of Directors who are representative of the community we serve.

Can you point me to the right place where I can get help even if you do not deal with my area of law?: Yes, we provide referrals for problems we cannot directly assist with.
