Frequently Asked Questions

The first step is choosing the type of appointment that matches what you need.

Some clients need legal advice about a specific residential tenancy issue. Others need help figuring out what kind of legal service is appropriate before any advice can be provided. The options below are designed to help you choose the right starting point.

15-Minute Initial Call — Not Legal Advice

Book this call if you are not sure where to start or what service you need. This is a brief call to discuss the nature of your residential tenancy issue, any upcoming deadline or hearing, whether I may be able to assist, and what type of service may be appropriate.

This is not a legal advice consultation. It does not include document review, case assessment, advice about your options, or instructions about what legal steps to take.

If your matter is complicated, involves multiple issues, or may require document review, drafting, strategy, or representation, please book this call first.

30-Minute Summary Legal Advice Consultation

Book this consultation if you have a specific, narrow residential tenancy question and want brief legal advice or clarification about next steps.

This consultation is suitable for focused issues, quick time-sensitive questions, or a limited discussion of rights, obligations, risks, or RTB process.

It is not intended for complex matters, detailed document review, full case evaluation, drafting, evidence review, or ongoing representation.

60-Minute Consultation

This appointment is for preliminary legal advice, issue-spotting, procedural guidance, and discussion of next steps in a residential tenancy matter.

It is suitable if you want to understand your options, the RTB process, possible claims or defences, evidence issues, or general strategy.

This appointment does not include advance document review unless separately arranged and paid for. If your matter depends on a tenancy agreement, RTB forms, notices, emails, texts, photographs, an evidence package, or a detailed chronology, I may not be able to provide a reliable merits assessment during a 60-minute consultation.

For active RTB hearings, complex disputes, or matters requiring review of documents and communications, I may recommend a separate paid document review or hearing preparation service.
