Many people in Ontario live as tenants and pay rent or collect rent as Landlords of a property.

We spend many hours in our home, it’s where we rest, connect and recover. There is great pride in the possession of your own property or unit. Whether it’s for the purpose of renting or personal use, we understand that our clients desire to maintain the value of their property and exercise their rights.

The landlord- tenant relationship is a contract, often laid out in a tenancy agreement that outlines the terms and legal obligations of both sides. When terms of the agreement are not kept, that is where we at UO Law step in.

We assist landlords and tenants in:

• Preparing the appropriate Notices and forms
• Eviction Applications
• Applications to the Board regarding tenant rights
• Acting as legal representative in Board hearings

Your residence and/or property is important to you. Let us help you navigate the Landlord and Tenant Board of Ontario, and work to solve your legal issues.
