Legal Disputes Between Landlords and Tenants
Last Updated: July 02 2026
Question: What should I do to make sure my Landlord and Tenant Board eviction for non-payment of rent or unlawful conduct dispute is filed in the right forum in Ontario and not dismissed?
Answer: If you’re dealing with an eviction dispute in Ontario, SFG Paralegal Services LLP can help you determine whether your matter must proceed at the Landlord and Tenant Board or instead in Small Claims Court, because filing in the wrong forum can lead to dismissal and may limit your ability to restart the process later.

Affordable Legal Help at Landlord Tenant Board Hearings for Eviction for Causing Damage, Eviction for Causing Safety Hazards, among other things.
SFG Paralegal Services LLP offers legal help for Landlord and Tenant Board cases involving Eviction for Causing Damage, Eviction for Causing Safety Hazards, among other things as issues in dispute that are governed by the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006, S.O. 2006, Chapter 17. Confusingly, where a dispute exists between residential landlords and former tenants, certain matters must still proceed within the Landlord Tenant Board while certain other matters must proceed in the Small Claims Court. Sometimes, when multiple legal issues arise, there are issues that must proceed at the Landlord Tenant Board while other issues proceed at the Small Claims Court. Failure to bring issues to the proper forum can result in a dismissal of proceedings and possibly with a loss of right to redo or restart proceedings in the proper fashion and within the correct forum. Other matters, such as commercial tenancy cases are outside the jurisdiction of the Landlord Tenant Board and may be litigated in the Small Claims Court depending on the legal issues involved and whether the matter involves less than the $35,000 per Plaintiff limit.
