''First Measure - Then Protect''
The word ''Scales'' was selected from the first well-known phrase as it is synonymous with ''Justice'' and the legal system/profession. Then the word ''Shield'' was selected from the second well-known phrase as first thoroughly weighing and measuring all ''Pro et Contra'' of the case before commencing any legal action on your behalf.
Scales & Shield will act as a legal shield by providing representation that comes from a thorough understanding of legal procedure pertaining to our area of legal practice while always remaining in good standing.
Paralegals are regulated by the Law Society of Upper Canada, are required to follow the same professional code of conduct as lawyers.
Paralegals are required to carry an insurance. Once licensed and insured, the paralegal can provide legal services within a limited scope.
Paralegals can offer legal services in certain areas, such as small claims court, traffic court, tribunal work and minor criminal matters.
Although a lawyer can assist the public in these types of matters as well, it is usually more cost effective to use a paralegal.
