2. Get legal help
Question & Answer
What if I don’t go to my eviction hearing?It's always best to get legal advice about eviction problems if you can, especially when there's an eviction against you.
If you have a low income, you can call your local community legal clinic and try to make an appointment to discuss your situation. Be sure to tell the clinic that you have an eviction order against you.
If you can't get help from a community legal clinic, you can contact the Law Society Referral Service for a free 30-minute consultation with a lawyer or paralegal. Or you can contact JusticeNet, a non-profit organization that can connect you with a lawyer or paralegal who has agreed to work for reduced fees.
You can also call Pro Bono Ontario's hotline where you can get up to 30 minutes of free legal advice.
