Housing Law

We help tenants and co-op partners with legal problems that affect their housing. These can include:

  • Evictions, from a rental unit or co-op housing
  • Repairs and maintenance problems
  • Harrassment
  • Rent subsidy being cut off

Please contact the clinic for help.

We can’t help landlords. Please contact the Landlord Self-Help Centre for assistance.
