Legal Links

PUTTING YOU IN TOUCH

Use our legal links to find the information you need, when you need it.

LAW SOCIETIES

Law Societies, not the CBA, govern Canada’s legal profession. They ensure lawyers meet professional standards and can help with issues regarding a specific lawyer’s conduct. Find out more about the CBA and what it does.

LEGAL AID

Legal aid services are government-funded or subsidized legal services available for people with difficulties affording legal services, and who qualify for those services.

PRO BONO

Pro bono services are legal services provided by lawyers, free of charge or at a greatly reduced rate. Some CBAmember lawyers provide pro bono services out of their commitment to the public interest and access to justice. For more information on pro bono legal services, or to find a lawyer who provides pro bono services, please contact your provincial or territorial law society.
