FREE LEGAL SERVICES
Why do we offer free legal services for students?
Free legal service is offered to students because we understand that not everyone can afford to speak to a lawyer when they need to, and this service helps many international students when it comes to studying in Canada. This service is available for both domestic and international students.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Just one (1) free appointment per year, per student.
Must be currently registered as a CBU student and a Students’ Union fee-paying member to be eligible.
What topics can I discuss with the lawyer?
A large variety of topics can be discussed, such as rent, leases, contracts, employment problems, travelling, and bringing the family to Canada.
Can the lawyer notarize documents?
Yes! You can have documents notarized through this free service.
