By: WoahMedia.com Paralegals are not the same in every country. In the United States, they are not authorized by the government or other agency to offer legal services in the same way. They are not officers of the court and are not subject to government-/court- BENEFITS TO YOU The Province of Ontario, Canada, recently became the first jurisdiction in North America to provide for the licensing of independent paralegals. This change now allow paralegals to act as legal agents who have the ability to represent on many matters, including all Provincial Offences, work for Provincial Tribunals and Boards, as well as Summary Criminal Cases. They are not "law clerks" in the province of Ontario, Canada but rather are considered officers of the court, a formal part of the legal system. This means that, unlike the United States and other Canadian jurisdictions, a paralegal license allows a paralegal to independently represent you in provincial offences court, summary conviction criminal court, small claims court and administrative tribunals such as the Financial Services Commission of Ontario or the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board. By offering Paralegals the right to practice independent of lawyers, and also work alongside lawyers in areas of practice that are only permitted to be practiced by lawyers, you the consumer, have more options to hire the best legal representative at an affordable rate. You are no longer restricted to paying the inflated rates of a lawyer for matters that paralegals are licensed to perform.
