Small Claims Court: Common Questions
What is the limit for Small Claims Court in Ontario?
As of October 1, 2025, Ontario Small Claims Court handles disputes up to $50,000, up from the previous $35,000 limit. If your claim is larger, we can advise on your options in the Superior Court.
How long does a small claims matter take?
It varies with the court's schedule and whether the matter settles, but many claims are resolved within several months. We push for the most efficient route to a result.
Can I recover my costs if I win?
The court can order the losing party to pay some costs and disbursements, though usually not the full amount. We explain what to realistically expect for your matter.
How much do you charge?
For most matters we work on a flat fee agreed in writing before any work begins, so you know the cost from the start rather than facing an open-ended hourly bill. For larger matters we can structure payment around milestones. Your first consultation is free, and you receive a clear breakdown of all fees up front.
Is my information confidential?
Yes. Everything you share is protected by solicitor-client privilege and stored on Canadian servers in compliance with PIPEDA.
How quickly will I hear back?
We aim to respond within one business day. For urgent or time-sensitive matters, call us directly.
