Access to Justice for All
Legal Aid Ontario is committed to ensuring that low-income Ontarians have access to high-quality legal services. The Kingston district office plays a crucial role in the local justice system by providing legal assistance to those who might otherwise be unable to afford a lawyer.

This office is a cornerstone of the community, helping to protect the rights of vulnerable individuals in criminal, family, and immigration matters.
- Legal Aid Certificates: Processing applications for certificates that cover the cost of a private lawyer for criminal charges, family disputes, and immigration hearings.
- Duty Counsel: Immediate legal advice and assistance in the courtroom for individuals appearing without a lawyer.
