“Law Society - Ontario's Legal Mafia”

Frank L.
2/18/21

Overcharging Lawyers in Ontario Canada are fully protected from criminal prosecution and jail-time by their own Law Society, and by the governments. Every lawyer pays yearly Union Dues to their Law Society for job protection. The Law Society's self-protecting conflict-of-interest is fully supported by all members of both the Ontario and the Federal Governments because of the disproportionate glut of lawyers elected to both governments. Canada's unelected LEGAL MAFIA has control over our governments! A Judge Assessment Officer of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice is assigned to review the lawyer's bill. This Assessment Officer is merely a lawyer friend, colleague and/or crony of the dishonest, overcharging lawyer. The Assessment Hearings are merely an obvious sham and gross miscarriage of justice. The kangaroo court Hearings are a total farce, intended to punish the Plaintiff for having the audacity to take a lawyer to court! My Assessment Officer even had lunch with the Defendant-Lawyer on both days. My Assessment Officer and my overcharging lawyer were then both one hour late returning from their lunch and then even entered the courtroom together. Please comment on my personal experiences by leaving a post and by sending an email to your Ontario and Federal Members of Parliament.

There are over 5,000 complaints made to the Ontario Law Society against crooked lawyers every year, yet they investigate less than 5% of them, and only 2% result in any disciplinary actions, sanctions, or fines. Hundreds of victims protest and complain about the OLS on line as you can see here https://reddit.com/r/TheOntarioLawSociety but they hire a professional hacker that deletes negative comments. If you have a problem with a lawyer involving bill fraud, extortion, threats, etc. call the cops and crown attorney, NOT the OLS. They are the Great Pretender - A wolf in Sheep's wool.

Tip for consumers:
Call the police NOT the Ontario Law Society if you have been swindled by a lawyer. Also file a formal complaint with the Canadian Bar Association to document your problem in case a law suit results.

If you seek help from the Law Society of Ontario they will first make you sign a non-disclosure agreement forbidding you to talk to the police or news media about the lawyer who cheated you. They dismiss 96% of all complaints received against lawyers and only the high profile cases exposed by the media get you any remedy. They will just gaslight you for 6 months then say they can; t find enough action to hold a tribunal even if you have a boatload of evidence, eye-witnesses, and recordings. Take a look at https://reddit.com/r/TheOntarioLawSociety which is a sad dose of reality.

They will never get you a refund from your crooked lawyer even if he rapes your GF like in my case. So if they commit a crime, call the cops not the Law Society - experts in cover-ups.

Tip for consumers:
Never trust nor believe anything the Law Society of Ontario tells you! They are a good-old-boys club of old white men that is basically just a union for lawyers. IMO they are a great example of organized crime.

They don't help in reviewing the paralegal service fees, where you get overcharged by a paralegal service on their list and they will not work with you to verify the charges according to work has been done.
