Legal

 
I work in a community legal clinic, Keewaytinok Native Legal Services in Moosonee, Ontario. The clinic is funded by Legal Aid Ontario, formerly known as the Ontario Legal Aid Plan. Keewaytinok provides free legal services to low income people and their organizations (including First Nations) in the James Bay area. Services include casework and public legal education. The clinic handles many types of cases including consumer, debt, criminal (generally just summary advice), employment, wills, family (generally just summary advice), drafting of documents, Native, social assistance, victims of crime, employment insurance and the incorporation and organization of non-profit corporations.

I cannot provide legal advice to anyone other than clinic clients since as long as I do not carry insurance for private practice; Legal Aid Ontario pays my fees and errors and omissions insurance as long as I do no outside work.
