Ministry of Attorney General

Northern Virtual Counter (Courthouse Services) (New)
Citizens and lawyers with questions that they normally would have to attend a Courthouse counter for, can now click the Teams link and have a virtual session with court staff to ask questions for both Civil and Criminal matters and for both Provincial and Supreme Court. Currently, it is just a pilot and only for the North region. Clients click on the link, and will get the “we’ve let the person know you’re waiting” message that comes up in Teams. Audio only (call in) option is available.

Performing Artists Legal Clinic (New)
The clinic provides summary legal advice for performing artists facing legal and contractual issues. Review the information provided on the website first. If you need additional information and support, fill out the online intake form: https://artistslegaloutreach.com/palc-intake/.
