Apuntar Legal Services

Effective Representation for Landlords and Tenants

​

At Apuntar Legal Services, we offer knowledgeable and practical legal representation for both landlords and tenants involved in disputes under Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act (RTA). We appear before the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) to help clients protect their rights, resolve disputes, and navigate the often complex procedural requirements of rental law in Ontario.

​

From our office in Mississauga, Ontario, we serve clients across the Greater Toronto Area and throughout the province.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

 

Do I need to serve a notice before filing an LTB application?
Yes. In most situations, a proper notice (e.g., N4, N5, N12) must be served before an application (e.g., L1, L2) can be filed with the Board.

 

Can I file my LTB forms online?
Yes. Many forms can be filed electronically via the LTB’s online portal. We can assist with both electronic and in-person filings.

​

How long does the eviction process take in Ontario?
Timelines vary depending on the reason for eviction, notice periods, hearing availability, and tenant responses. Proper documentation and representation can help avoid unnecessary delays.
