| Case law – This 2 hour CPD webinar will introduce you to the wealth of binding case law from appeals to Divisional Court and the Ontario Court of Appeal. These appeals are binding on the Board, and can be used to bullet-proof your case. LTB decisions may be persuasive, but decisions from the appeal Courts have the real power. You will receive the most on-point appellate decisions that I keep in your everyday case law file. We will discuss the important decisions, how they can be argued and what the ratio of each case is. For new paralegals, it will be an overview of the importance of case law. For experienced paralegals, it will provide you with the leading cases that can improve your practice results. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |

| Evictions for Rent arrears & Persistent Late Payment During Tenancy – In this 1.5 hour CPD webinar you will learn all about the N4 termination notice, the L1 application and the hearing process, tenant remedying opportunities, and the rarely used L9 application. The webinar also instructs on how to evict for persistent late payment of rent with the N8 notice. Professionally completed forms are provided as samples, along with a 90 minute video. This webinar takes you through the entire process from N4 or N8 notice, to the L1 or L2 application and then to the hearing. One mistake in the process, and your application could be dismissed and you have to start over. This webinar includes all the 2020 Bill 184 changes. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Evictions for Tenant Conduct + Compensation for Conduct, Damage & Utilities – This 1.5 hour CPD webinar includes all the 2020 & 2021 Bill 184 changes. Learn about the N5, N6, N7 and N8 eviction notices and how to complete them properly. We explain how to file applications to the LTB, how the complicated N5 voiding provisions work, and how to make sure you provide sufficiency of details in your termination notices. The webinar includes a number of termination notice appendices samples for complex issues such as non-payment of utilities, condo evictions, smoking, marijuana etc. If a tenant has damaged your unit or failed to pay the unpaid utilities, or causes you other monetary loss through their conduct (such as a condominium charge-back), this webinar will show you how to apply for eviction and for the recovery of your reasonable costs. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Evictions for Landlord or Purchaser Use + Renovation and Demolition – In this 1 hour CPD webinar which includes all the 2020 & 2021 Bill 184 changes, we discuss No Fault Evictions, that is, those for landlord and purchaser use, as well as for demolition and extensive renovation. Ontario’s 2017 RTA rule changes made these applications more complex, and the recent 2020 changes made it quite punitive for landlords who have provided the tenant with a bad-faith N12 notice. This is our #1 downloaded product. Learn strategies for successfully evicting for recovery of the unit for the landlord or purchaser or their family. A lot of these applications are dismissed by the LTB, and large fines of up to $35,000 can be imposed by the Board for bad-faith evictions. Avoid being another statistic. Also learn how to stay out of trouble and avoid having to pay LTB fines, provincial offences fines (up to $250,000) and compensation to former tenants of more than a year’s rent. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Post-Tenancy Claims for Rent, Damage, Utilities & other Losses – New Enforcement of LTB Judgements for Eviction and Money – New This new 2 hour CPD webinar includes all the 2021 Bill 184 changes related to the landlord’s ability to file with the LTB for compensation for any type of monetary loss that occurred during the tenancy. This includes rent, damage, utilities, compensation, NSF, application fees etc. The RTA now allows these claims where the landlord did not file the application while the tenants were still in possession, but files their claim AFTER the tenants have moved out. The LTB’s new L10 form and new service requirements will be explained. We’ve added a second part to this CPD describing how to enforce LTB judgements, both for eviction with the provincial Sheriff, and for monies at Small Claims Court. We take you through the entire enforcement process step by step. Included are samples of filled-in Sheriff and Small Claims Court forms. These included a sample supplementary affidavit to deal with LTB eviction orders where the debt runs after the order is issued until the tenant moves out etc. We describe the process for garnishment and judgement debtor examination fully. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Preparing for & Attending a Hearing at the LTB – Updated to October 2022 with all the post-COVID changes for virtual Zoom hearings and the new filing Portal. This 1.5 hour CPD covers preparing for an eviction hearing and the process of conducting the hearing. It will help you feel more comfortable when the hearing date comes. We start off with preparing, scheduling, filing and adjourning a hearing. Then we move on to attending a hearing, conduct at the hearing, summoning witnesses, questioning witnesses, internal reviews at the LTB and appeals to Divisional Court. You will learn the ins and outs of providing oral evidence, cross-examining witnesses, how to use exhibits etc. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Mediation & alternate dispute resolution at the LTB – In this 2 hour CPD webinar, you learn about the process of alternative dispute resolution at the LTB, the mediator-assisted settlement agreement versus the Board-ordered consent order. Learn how to enforce agreements with s.78 clauses as a way to an easier eviction or enforceable behaviour/payment agreement. We also cover the new and controversial 2020 private re-payment agreements from Bill 184 which allow a landlord and tenant to avoid the LTB completely, but allows for the landlord to file directly for eviction if the tenant breaches the terms of the private repayment plan. These s.206 agreements are a benefit to landlords, but dangerous for tenants. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
| Reviews, Amendments & Appeals under the RTA – This 2 hour CPD webinar teaches you administrative law principles which are vital when you are arguing reviews at the LTB. Many paralegals don’t properly prepare themselves and fail to argue admin law principles such as curial deference, standard of review, discretion to fact-finders etc. This CPD will make you a better overall paralegal, teaching you how to draft review requests at the LTB that will more often than not, get you to a review hearing. We will talk about the 3 stages of review under the Rules, and of course look at the Rule and Guideline on Reviews. You will receive a number of different review requests to help guide you in your own drafting. We will also talk about requests to amend, the difference between amendments and reviews, when amendments should be granted and when they cannot, and the timing issues around amendments. Finally we will be speaking of the statutory right of appeal under the RTA, and why and how you should look at EVERY LTB hearing as a first step in a successful appeal if it should to to Divisional Court. | Includes video and the companion PowerPoint |
