Services of a lawyer
Be represented
In principle, only a lawyer may represent you. Exceptionally, you may be represented by a person of your choice other than a lawyer when the law allows it. For example, in matters of compensation for victims of crime or in the area of immigration.
If your financial situation does not permit you to retain the services of a lawyer and if you are not eligible for legal aid, you should be aware of several organizations that offer a free consultation service.
Finding a lawyer
The Quebec Bar offers in our Website links to the references services from different Bar sections and lawyers associations to help the public to find a lawyer.
These references are not recommendations. It is therefore your responsibility to inform yourself about the fields of activities of this lawyer.
