Legal Advice
Information about obtaining legal advice, self-representation, and court registry assistance.
Deadline Notes
Seek legal advice as early as possible before filing or responding to court documents.
Help / Contact
For filing information, contact the Court Registry. For legal advice, contact a lawyer, pleader, or legal assistance provider.
Court Registry staff can provide general information about court filing processes, but they cannot provide legal advice.
People involved in court matters may:
– Seek advice from a private lawyer or pleader;
– Contact the Public Legal Defender where applicable;
– Represent themselves in court;
– Ask the Court Registry about filing procedures and court dates.
Self-representation is possible, but legal advice is recommended, especially where the matter is serious, complex, or involves important rights.
