If and when the in- dividual‘s circumstances change the amount due for services would be reimbursed, if there is no prospect of payment the benefit will be provided free. Prior to that time people in the region who could not afford legal services had to go to Toronto to get the legal aid certificate. last weekend. The obstacle course was set up to invite local residents gain awareness of what it is like to try to manage a way through life in a wheelchair. If an issue comes up that is simple in nature the lawyer on duty will do a limited follow up, for example send a letter explaining the person’s situation or make necessary telephone calls. Problems people are capable of taking care of themselves are handled by offering guidance and explaining procedures. For an appointment or further information about Richmond Hill’s legal aid service call 884-9148. Someone who is con- templating separation may want to know where he stands in law or a person who has taken a step should know the appropriate action, he said. If the problem is not of a legal nature the lawyer will suggest another agency, otherwise he will advise people‘ of their rights. If the person can afford it he will be sent to his lawyer. matrimonial problems make up about 65 per cent of the legal issues that are handled in Richmond Hill.
