No Insurance Charges Ontario – 5 Tips to Hiring the Best Law Firm

Here are 5 tips for finding the best No Insurance Law Firm to get you the best outcome from your No Insurance case.

  • These 5 tips are legit (I’m an experienced legal representative).
  • These are the tips I’ve given over the years to family, friends and contacts when asked about finding a great Law Firm.
  • Without exception, my contacts always thank me for sharing these 5 tips.

Tip #1 – Experience

Choose a Law Firm that has experience with No Insurance charges.

  • No Insurance is a serious charge with severe consequences.  
  • No Insurance charge is technical in nature, and opportunities to get the best outcome often lie in the fine details of your case.  
  • It’s been my experience that Law Firms who are not experienced with No Insurance cases may miss those small details that can make the difference in winning or losing your case.

Tip #2 – Existing Relationship with the Prosecutor

Your No Insurance case will be handled in the courts by a Prosecutor whose job is to convict you.

  • That Prosecutor is different in every court. And every Prosecutor has different nuanced ways of handling cases. 
  • For example, your fact situation may be handled differently in Court A vs Court B.
  • When you get a Law Firm with a relationship with the Prosecutor, that Law Firm will know how the Prosecutor will likely move ahead with your case.
  • By understanding your specific case and how the Prosecutor operates, the Law Firm will be better prepared to formulate a strategy to get the best outcome for your case.

Tip #3 – Low Fees Are Red Flags

If a Law Firm is offering you a much lower fee than other Law Firm’ fees, you should be concerned.

  • Generally, there is a “market price” for Law Firms that deal with No Insurance charges. And, that market price will likely vary depending on several factors about your case.
  • However, if you find a No Insurance Law Firm who will take a lot less of your money than other Law Firms, that is a huge red flag.
  • Although you may save a bit of money, I would worry whether the Law Firm can get you the best result for your case. And the answer to that question is most likely no.

Tip #4 – Does it “feel right.”

All good No Insurance Law Firms will give you a free consultation. And after you have your meeting, ask yourself:

  • Does the Law Firm make sense?
    • Does the Law Firm promise something that seems too good to be true?
  • Did the Law Firm listen to your concerns?

Ultimately, use your gut feeling and make sure there’s a right fit between your needs and how the Law Firm will represent you.

Tip #5 – Google Reviews

Google reviews matter. Every Law Firm I know tries to get Google reviews from their clients. So before you retain, check online:

  • Does the Law Firm have Google reviews? If they are experienced, then they will have Google reviews. If they don’t have a lot of reviews, then that is potentially a red flag.
  • Read those Google reviews. Do they make sense? This is important because some unethical Law Firms will buy “fake reviews.” And, reading those reviews may give you a sense of whether those reviews are real or not.
