What is the Access to Justice Program ?

As part of our services, Brunet & Associés | Avocats Montréal has developed a program based on the principle of access to justice. We firmly believe that it is not always necessary to be represented by a lawyer to proceed before the various courts. We consider that in many situations, only sporadic assistance of a lawyer specialized in Family Law or Civil Law, in the form of a “coaching session”, will be sufficient to bring to fruition a litigious dispute. This is a personalized service which provides assistance and which has the effect of substantially reducing the costs of conflict resolution.

A FEW EXAMPLES

The Coaching service offered by Brunet & Associés is available both in Family and Civil matters. For example, our firm can assist you in managing issues involving in particular%nbsp:

• Annulment of child support for an adult child;
• Filing of a Joint Application for Divorce or any other Joint Demand;

Considering that the monetary limit on small claims cases has increased from $7,000 to $15,000, this service of accompaniment (or “coaching”) will permit you to save on both judicial and legal services fees.
