The Fleming College Paralegal diploma is accredited with the Law Society of Ontario (LSO). The LSO is the governing body for paralegals. Fleming College program courses meet all competency requirements and prepare students to write the licensing exam and become a member of the LSO. As a licensed paralegal in Ontario, graduates can commission documents and represent clients dealing with lawsuits falling within the jurisdiction of Small Claims Court. Paralegals can act for people facing summary conviction charges under municipal by-laws, provincial statutes or the Criminal Code. Some serve as by-law enforcement personnel, or act in a prosecutorial capacity for municipal governments. Paralegals are also trained to assist clients through the potentially complex proceedings of tribunals such as the Landlord and Tenant Board, the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board, or the Ontario Rental Housing Tribunal. Some paralegals choose to work under the supervision of lawyers or other paralegals, while others offer their services directly to the public.
