Profile
Licensed Paralegal and Immigration Services
Kanata Legal Services is a boutique legal services firm located in a charming heritage property on Raymond Street in St. Catharines. Founded by Krista Rodriguez, a dual-licensed professional who is both a Licensed Paralegal with the Law Society of Ontario and a Regulated Canadian Immigration Consultant (RCIC), the firm offers a unique blend of legal expertise. This dual qualification allows the firm to handle a broader range of matters than a standard consultancy, providing robust representation in immigration tribunals as well as Ontario’s Small Claims Court. The firm prides itself on being approachable, offering services in both English and Spanish to better serve the diverse Niagara community.
Complete Immigration Solutions
The core of the practice is Immigration Law. Kanata Legal Services assists clients with every step of their journey to Canada, from initial visa applications to obtaining Canadian citizenship. They are skilled in handling LMIA applications for employers, Work Permits for international talent, and Study Permits for students. For those facing enforcement issues, the firm represents clients in Detention Reviews and immigration appeals, leveraging their legal training to advocate effectively before the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB).
Small Claims and Notary Services
In addition to immigration, Kanata Legal Services provides essential legal support for everyday disputes. As a Licensed Paralegal firm, they represent clients in Small Claims Court for civil matters involving up to $35,000. This includes breach of contract, unpaid invoices, and property damage claims. They also offer convenient Notary Public and Commissioner of Oaths services, helping you certify documents, swear affidavits, and finalize travel authorizations for minors. Their ”Main Street” location offers a friendly, less intimidating alternative to large law firms.
