LTB Hearing Representation
About This Service
Landlord and Tenant Board hearings are now held by videoconference in the Board's Zoom hearing rooms — which means the location of your rental property no longer decides who can represent you. Carli Geist appears for landlords across Ontario from her Burlington practice: she prepares the evidence brief, uploads and serves documents the way the LTB's rules require, handles the mediation the Board offers on hearing day, examines and cross-examines witnesses, and makes the submissions. Tenants increasingly arrive with Tenant Duty Counsel or their own representative; a landlord who logs in alone is often the least prepared person in the room. Carli makes sure that is not you.
What Landlords Need to Know
- Hearings held by video in the LTB's Zoom hearing rooms — province-wide
- Evidence must be uploaded and served before the hearing under LTB rules
- Board-offered mediation on hearing day can resolve files on strong terms
- Tenant Duty Counsel is available to tenants at every hearing — for free
- Adjournments and errors cost months in the LTB's backlog
Why Landlords Use a Paralegal
The Residential Tenancies Act is unforgiving of paperwork errors. A notice with the wrong termination date, an arrears figure a few dollars off, or an application that doesn't match its notice gets dismissed at the hearing — after months in the LTB's queue — and the clock starts over. Tenants have free Tenant Duty Counsel available at every hearing; landlords who represent themselves are often the least protected person in the room.
Paralegals regulated by the Law Society of Ontario are fully authorized to represent landlords before the Landlord and Tenant Board. LTB hearings are held by video in Zoom hearing rooms, so Carli represents landlords across Ontario from her Burlington practice — professional advocacy at a fraction of the cost of a lawyer.
