Natale Law Offices

It has been a very busy week at Natale Law Offices. It is a pleasure to assist people with advice and information which in turn assist our clients. The staff at my office are well trained and professional and it is not unusual for me to get a call complementing how my staff handled a file. Specifically I have received compliments regarding Andrea, Matt and Sam. These staff members have been with my team for over four years and their professionalism and assistance is greatly appreciated.

Natale law offices-Small Claims Court

The limit for the Small Claims Court in Ontario has increased to $25,000 effective January 1st, 2010. This increase in the limit recognizes the costs and time commitment of litigation and enhances access for self represented individuals or others to the justice system. It recognizes the need within this dollar range to have access to justice while not being required to incur significant legal costs.

Natale law Offices has a significant amount of experience representing creditors in Small Claims Court. Natale law Offices believes the system works efficiently and effectively to ensure its clients obtain judgment and have access to all enforcement remedies.
A judgment once obtained may be enforced through a variety of methods. The most successful is garnishment of employment income. This allows for steady payments of the outstanding judgment. Another successful tool regularly relied on by Natale law offices is the garnishment of bank accounts. If a bank account is located and garnished the entire amount in the bank account is typically subject to seizure and application against the judgment

Recently, I received several telephone calls relating to correspondence forwarded to a previous address for a consumer who owes money. It is very much appreciated when we receive a call letting us know that our client has an old or outdated address or telephone number. Once we are advised of this information our records are updated and our client is advised. My Assistants will be professional and polite and appreciate being told if they are attempting to reach someone at a wrong number or address. It is not only a waste of our resources, it may be an aggravation for the individual who now resides at the previous address of a consumer who was delinquent in the repayment to their creditors or obtains the same telephone number.

Natale Law offices-Credit bureau information

The two major credit bureaus in Canada are Equifax and Trans Union Canada.

They collect personal credit information and sell it to banks, department stores, employers and others, and you have the right to know what information they have on you. Usually, both agencies have similar information, so if you want to check your credit rating and history, you probably only need to check the records of just one of them. The toll-free phone number for Equifax is 1.800.465.7166 and its website is www.equifax.ca. Trans Union Canada’s toll-free phone number is 1.866.525.0262 and its website is www.transunion.ca.

Demand Letters and debts

If one receives a legal demand letter it is important that they respond. It is surprising how easy it is to speak with a qualified representative and work out a resolution to an outstanding debt. Owing funds or money can be very stressful and the sooner an individual deals with the situation the better they feel.

Responding to a Claim

In Ontario, a creditor can serve a claim in the Small Claims Court by mail and this provides the defendant, (the individual being sued) with time to file a defence. If you have received a claim from Natale Law Offices there will be no reference to "Draft", the document mailed will have a court file number and will have been signed by a clerk. This is a very important legal document which should be responded to. If received, it is appropriate to contact Natale Law Offices immediately if you believe you have a defence, or, if you are willing to make arrangements to repay the debt in order to avoid the creditor from obtaining a judgment against you.
