Landlord and Tenant Board Representation

Representation at the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB)

Applications, defences, and hearings before Ontario’s Landlord and Tenant Board.

The Landlord and Tenant Board is the administrative tribunal with exclusive jurisdiction over applications under the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) – the legislation that sets out the rights and responsibilities of both landlords and tenants in Ontario. D&D Associates Paralegal Professional Corporation has represented Ontario landlords in matters before the Board for over 40 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers below are general information only, not legal advice, and do not create a paralegal-client relationship. For guidance on your specific situation, please contact us directly.

How long does it take to get an LTB hearing?

Timelines vary by application type and the Board’s current caseload – non-payment of rent applications are generally scheduled faster than others. Because wait times shift, the best way to get a sense of what to expect for your specific application is to speak with one of our paralegals.

Do I need a paralegal to represent me at the LTB?

No, landlords can represent themselves. However, LTB matters involve strict notice requirements, timelines, and evidentiary rules, and a mistake on a notice or application can lead to delay or dismissal. Many landlords retain a paralegal for that reason.

Can you take over a file I already started myself?

Yes. We regularly step in at any stage, whether you’re just about to serve notice or already have a hearing scheduled.

What happens if a tenant doesn’t comply after an LTB order is issued?

An LTB order can be enforced, including through the Ontario Court Enforcement Office for an eviction, or through other collection steps for amounts owed. We can advise on next steps once an order is in hand.
