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.
Organising an Orangeville representation enquiry
For an Orangeville enquiry, prepare a short chronology of the paperwork you have received and the appearances that have already taken place. Keep original documents separate from your notes. If another lawyer has worked on the matter, explain that when discussing the proposed scope of representation.
Court attendance in Orangeville, if required by your documents, and a consultation at our Brampton office are separate arrangements. Confirm the location and purpose of each appointment. Ask how the office will communicate a new date or a request for additional records after your consultation.
Orangeville court details to check before travelling
The Orangeville (County of Dufferin) Courthouse is listed at 10 Louisa Street. If that is the court on your documents, use its official page to check contact and attendance information before the date. Your consultation with Stratton Law is arranged separately through Brampton.
Orangeville 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.
