Every calculator on this page is an estimate. Your actual numbers depend on facts we'd need to review together. Nothing here is legal advice, and using a tool does not create a solicitor-client relationship with Lexaltico LLP. When you're ready for a real answer, call us. The first 30 minutes are free on most matters.
We offer calculators and interactive tools that help estimate costs, timelines, and outcomes for common legal matters. Our tools include fee estimators for various practice areas, outcome predictors based on case complexity, and process guides that walk you through procedures step-by-step. All tools are built by lawyers to provide realistic, practical information.
How accurate are the cost estimates from your tools?
Our estimates are based on typical matter complexity and Ontario legal market rates. Your actual costs may vary based on your specific situation, the other party's conduct, court workload, and unpredictable factors. Use our estimates as a starting point for budgeting, but always get a detailed fee quote from your lawyer before engaging. We provide firm quotes for most standard services.
Can I rely on tool results for decision-making?
Our tools provide helpful general information, but each legal situation has unique factors that affect outcomes. Don't make major decisions based solely on tool results. The results should prompt further questions for your lawyer, not replace professional advice. Use tools as a starting point, then discuss with a lawyer before proceeding.
Are these tools for Ontario only?
Most tools focus on Ontario law and procedure. Some tools include Alberta information as Lexaltico serves clients in both provinces. Each tool specifies which jurisdiction it applies to. If you need information for a different province, contact us and we can advise whether we can help or refer you to local counsel.
How are tool calculations updated when laws change?
We update our tools when laws change, fee structures shift, or court procedures change. However, there may be delays before updates are implemented. Always verify that tool information is current for your situation. When you consult with a lawyer, mention that you used a tool so the lawyer can ensure recommendations account for any recent changes.
What if a tool result seems wrong for my situation?
Contact us at 416-333-6200 to discuss your situation. Our tools are general and may not account for specific factors affecting your matter. Bring the tool result to your free consultation and let your lawyer review it. We can explain why your situation differs and provide a more accurate assessment after understanding your full circumstances.
