The Office de la protection du consommateur advises you to contact a legal support organization before presenting a case to the small claims court. These organizations will provide information and valuable advice to help you prepare your case and point out elements to consider in your request.
The opening hours and services offered may vary according to the organization and the region it is located in. We recommend that you contact an organization before visiting them in person.
Note that some organizations may also charge consultation fees.
The Web site Votre boussole juridique, also allows you to find community, government, and institutional services offered for free or inexpensively in your region.
