Bill 14 Information
On May 1st, 2007, the Law Society became responsible for regulating the paralegal profession in Ontario, as a result of amendments to the Law Society Act (“Act”) contained in Bill 14, Access to Justice Act. Under provisions in the Act, some activities currently done by HR Professionals may be seen as providing legal services and thus would be subject to the Law Society’s regulative, investigative and disciplinary authority as part of the new paralegals licensing regime.
