As of Oct 1, 2025, Ontario’s Small Claims Court limit increased from $35,000 → $50,000. That’s good news: more disputes can now be resolved in a faster, more cost-effective forum.

Having practiced in Small Claims Court for 15 years I've seen the missed opportunities. Raising the limit narrows that gap and helps preserve value for claimants. Cases over $50K will still go to Superior Court, so it’s important to weigh the cost–benefit of proceeding there versus adjusting your claim to stay in Small Claims.

If you have a matter, you’re unsure about, whether to take it to Small Claims or what the next steps are, you’re welcome to reach out to me. I’m happy to help you find a solution.

What exactly is a Paralegal?

When I tell my clients I’m a civil litigation paralegal, I often get asked some of the following questions:

· How can you help me lower my legal costs and increase my company’s profits?

· In what ways can you replace the services of a lawyer?

· What steps in a lawsuit are you involved in?

· Can you handle my case in Small Claims Court?

· How can you help save my company money?
