Take the law into your own hands ... with Les Vandor`s help
For the past nine years, Ottawa lawyer Les Vandor has been dispensing legal advice to 400,000 listeners of CBC Radio`s Ontario Today program. His monthly, hour-long segment fields calls about wills, landlord-tenant issues, liability, property, and lawsuits. Les offers anecdotes and advice in a way that explains the law in a clear, accessible, and understandable way.
Included in this book are the most frequently asked questions about Canadian criminal law from real people. Legal Counsel proves that ordinary people can ask ordinary questions and get simple, straightforward answers. And these same people will now be able to ask better, more informed questions if they ever do start working with a lawyer.
