Criminal Summary Offences
In Ontario, paralegals are authorized by the Law Society Act to represent clients in a summary conviction court under the Criminal Code (Canada). A summary conviction is described as a less serious offence punishable by a fine of not more than $5,000 or a term of imprisonment not exceeding six months or both.
Criminal charges are always critical because you will be primarily concerned with the prospect of possibly getting a criminal record, problems with your immigration status, US travel, and police background checks and information sharing causing future employment problems.

Theft under $5,000
