Discuss your certificate and criminal case together
A Legal Aid certificate authorises covered services from a lawyer who accepts it. Stratton Law accepts eligible criminal certificates, subject to the scope of coverage, a conflict check, and availability. Contacting the firm does not itself confirm representation.
Preparing your criminal Legal Aid representation consultation
Use the documents for your own matter to guide the discussion. Depending on the circumstances, Karandeep can review:
- The charge and court file identified in your documents
- Your certificate number and the services it authorises
- The next appearance and any urgent issue involving detention or conditions
- Whether coverage, conflicts, and availability allow the firm to accept the matter
What to do before you contact us
Have your certificate and court paperwork ready when you contact the office. If you have not applied, use Legal Aid Ontario’s official application information. LAO decides eligibility and coverage; the firm cannot guarantee approval.
Coordinate your Milton matter and consultation dates
Before contacting the firm from Milton, list the dates on your documents beside any scheduling concern you want to raise. Distinguish an appearance from an appointment with a lawyer. If new paperwork arrives after you book, ask how to get it reviewed before making assumptions about a changed date.
Use the consultation to discuss the work proposed, how fees will be explained, and who will provide updates. Mention an existing Legal Aid certificate when enquiring so coverage and availability can be checked. Confirm your Brampton consultation arrangements separately from any attendance required in Milton.
Milton court and consultation appointments
The Ontario Court of Justice lists Milton Courthouse at 491 Steeles Avenue East. If your matter is scheduled there, check the court’s current attendance information. An appointment with Stratton Law at our Brampton office is separate from that court date.
Milton (Halton) courthouse information
Follow the instructions for your particular proceeding. A published video link does not mean you may attend remotely when an in-person appearance is required. If the location or attendance method is unclear, confirm it with your lawyer or the court.
