Serving Milton from our Mississauga office. Office visits are by appointment only.
Identify the item and ownership information
Keep the actual allegation, purchase records and available agreements. Explain whether ownership is agreed, disputed or only your understanding. Joint use of a home or an item is different from evidence of a particular permission; avoid turning a relationship description into a legal conclusion.
Describe the handover or removal
Set out what you personally did and what was said at the time. Preserve relevant messages, including any qualifications. If you learned of an objection later, give that date separately rather than rewriting the earlier conversation to include it.
Separate a return proposal from current permission
Identify the present known location and any request or proposed return, alongside current terms. Do not enter a restricted home or use a relative to make prohibited contact. Counsel can review the criminal allegation; property division or other family work must be considered separately.
Understand the legal questions before choosing a response
The exact alleged taking, permission, intent and property history need review. Returning an item or describing it as borrowed does not by itself answer the original allegation. Keep the records of who allowed what, when and for which purpose, alongside any later request or return. A demand for payment or a civil dispute should be kept separate from the criminal papers so the requested work can be assessed.
Preparing for the first conversation
- Identify the item and ownership information
- Describe the handover or removal
- Separate a return proposal from current permission
Keep the initial website enquiry brief. Do not upload or send sensitive documents through the form; arrange any document review directly with the firm.
You do not need every item before getting in touch. Mention any approaching court or response date.
Common questions
Does having lived in the home settle whether I could take an item?
No. Identify the item, ownership and actual permission history. Counsel needs the conduct and intent alleged, not only the household relationship.
Can I return the item by entering the former home?
Do not enter or contact anyone contrary to current restrictions. Describe the proposed return and operative terms to counsel before relying on that arrangement.
Does returning the item automatically end a theft allegation?
No. The original conduct, permission and intent still need assessment. Preserve the return records and any proposal, without assuming that return alone decides the case.
Is saying the item was borrowed enough?
No. Explain who gave permission, what it covered and the relevant dates and records. Counsel can assess the actual allegation; the label alone is not the complete account.
