At Maria Shaw Paralegal Services, every case begins with an honest and careful evaluation of its legal merit. Not every dispute should move forward, and not every claim will succeed — and I believe clients deserve clear, straightforward advice from the very beginning.
With extensive experience in Ontario landlord and tenant law, including Legal Aid work and adjudicative experience at the Landlord and Tenant Board, I assess each matter based on the law, the evidence, and the realistic outcomes — not on assumptions or promises.
My role is to help you understand where you stand, what the risks are, and what options make the most sense for your situation. Sometimes that means moving forward confidently. Other times, it means re-thinking strategy, narrowing issues, or choosing a different path altogether.
You can expect transparency, professionalism, and advice grounded in experience — so you can make informed decisions and move forward with clarity and confidence.
Clear, predictable pricing
Services are provided on a flat-rate basis rather than hourly billing. Fees are discussed in advance so you know exactly what to expect, allowing you to make informed decisions with confidence.
