Can A Lawyer In Ontario Help A Friend Sue Someone On His Own Time?
My friend is being threatened with court from her ex’s lawyer, who happens to be his old friend from school. The lawyer is using his personal email for their exchanges, even though he works for a law firm. It’s obvious he’s doing this work for free on behalf of his “friend”. Shouldn’t he be using his work email address for his threats? Or do you think he’s afraid of his bosses finding out what he’s doing?
I Need Legal Advice Re: Keeping An American Who Has Served Time For Murder From Moving To Our Canadian Town?
The murder occurred in the States.
The woman was dating a police officer at the time, and used his gun to shoot the victim at a house party.
The victim was the one who was from the small town in Canada.
She has since been released and is off probation, and has met a police officer online who is living in the same small town that the victim was from, and where his family still resides.
She is now attempting to move here and reside as a permanent resident.
Are there any legal steps we can take to keep her from residing here?
