North Shore Community Resources

Helpful, sure. However, after putting in over a year submitting evidence, building my case, planning my approach, without any notice, the woman I was working with decided to retire.leaving me to essentially have to start over again. Then I was appointed another "advocate" and although her intentions were good, she had no real legal background, nor was she a lawyer. She tried to represent me in the first appearance and turtled on me as soon as the judge showed her any authority or challenge.
The worst part was, she told me she was a retired family lawyer initially, which was not true, she was an advocate. This ended up being super detrimental to my case because she filed my case incorrectly with the court under a provincial order, whereas it should have been filed as an Interjurisdictional and/or for international enforcement. This resulted in me having my case dismissed, not even having a chance to present evidence and losing over $30,000! So, although free service is nice, it somehow always comes with a cost.in this case a big one!

This place is a hidden resource for a variety of services you might need. They have a toy lending library for kids where you go borrow toys and books for 3 weeks. Great service. They offer free legal aid services and much more.

Today I meet Christopher he is awesome knowledgeable caring. He was very helpful. I highly recommend to see him
Thanks a lot for all your help

Such an underrated organization! They have everything from legal advice, childcare information, everything related to supporting seniors, housing info, and more. All of the services are free as they are not for profit and I think people don't understand that with helpful, free resources comes certain wait times, etc. That being said, you could walk in with ANY urgent issue, and walk out with a list of extremely helpful resources. We love NSCR!
