Licensed Canadian lawyers. Affordable by design.
Legal help shouldn't require a retainer most people can't afford. We built DirectLegal to change that.
Why DirectLegal exists
The problem
Legal services in Canada are expensive and inaccessible. Most people and small businesses delay legal advice until a crisis forces the issue — and by then, the cost of fixing it is far higher.
The principle
Fixed fees aren't a discount. They're a structural choice to make legal costs predictable and remove the barrier of not knowing what you'll owe.
