Terms of Use

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the website located at trafficticketparalegal.ca (the "Site"), operated by R.S. Walia, a paralegal licensed by the Law Society of Ontario, carrying on business as Walia Traffic Legal Services ("Walia Traffic Legal Services," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using this Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use this Site.

1. No Paralegal-Client Relationship

Use of this Site, including submission of a contact form, sending an email, or any other communication through or in connection with this Site, does not create a paralegal-client relationship between you and Walia Traffic Legal Services. A paralegal-client relationship is established only through the execution of a written retainer agreement signed by both parties.

Until a retainer agreement has been signed, Walia Traffic Legal Services is under no obligation to keep confidential any information you provide through this Site, and nothing you communicate will attract solicitor-client privilege. Do not send confidential or time-sensitive information through this Site unless and until a retainer agreement is in place.

2. Not Legal Advice

The information published on this Site — including articles, newsletter posts, service descriptions, summaries of legislation, and any other content — is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute legal advice, legal opinion, or any other form of professional advice, and it must not be relied upon as such.

The law is fact-specific. Information that is accurate in one set of circumstances may not apply to yours. You should always consult a licensed lawyer or paralegal about your specific situation before taking any legal action or making any decisions with legal consequences.

3. Scope of Paralegal Practice

R.S. Walia is a paralegal licensed by the Law Society of Ontario (LSO) and is authorized to practise law in Ontario within the scope permitted to paralegals under the Law Society Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. L.8, and By-Law 4. This includes representation in Ontario Provincial Offences Act proceedings and other matters authorized by the LSO.

R.S. Walia does not practise outside the authorized scope of paralegal practice and does not hold himself out as a lawyer. References to "legal services" on this Site refer to services within the authorized paralegal scope.

4. No Guarantee of Results

Nothing on this Site constitutes a guarantee, warranty, or prediction of any particular outcome in any legal matter. Prior results described or referenced on this Site do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any future matter. Every legal matter is unique and depends on its specific facts, the applicable law, the jurisdiction, and the determination of the decision-maker.

5. Accuracy and Currency of Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information on this Site is accurate, current, and complete at the time of publication. However, the law changes frequently. Legislation is amended, regulations are updated, and court decisions alter established principles. We do not warrant that the information on this Site is accurate, complete, or current at the time you access it.

You should not act or refrain from acting on the basis of information on this Site without first obtaining independent legal advice that accounts for your specific circumstances and the current state of the law.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Walia Traffic Legal Services shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or harm of any kind — including direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages — arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, this Site or any content on it, regardless of whether such liability arises in contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise.

This limitation applies even if Walia Traffic Legal Services has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages; in such jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

7. Confidentiality of Communications

As noted above, communications through this Site before the establishment of a retainer agreement do not attract solicitor-client privilege and are not treated as confidential. If you submit a contact form or send an email, the information you provide may be reviewed by R.S. Walia and relevant support staff for the purpose of evaluating whether to accept a retainer.

Once a retainer agreement is in place, all communications are subject to the confidentiality obligations imposed on paralegals by the Rules of Professional Conduct of the Law Society of Ontario.
