Hey Lewis,
The best way I will suggest you to find out a Lawyer is to check the Yellow Pages of your telephone book under "Lawyers".
You could feel more confident with the recommendation of someone you know and trust. Women's shelters and other community agencies may recommend a lawyer to you. In addition, the Law Society of Upper Canada offers a lawyer referral service to the public. For a $6 charge generated on your phone bill, you can call the Lawyer Referral Service at 1-900-565-4577.
For those callers who are incarcerated, or are in crisis or domestic abuse situations, you can call the LRS at 416-947-3330 in the Toronto area, or toll-free 1-800-268-8326 from elsewhere in Ontario.
Thus, the lawyers who take part in the referral service program will offer you a free consultation for up to half-an-hour. During the consultation, you can find out as to how the law applies to your situation; or as to how to use the law to solve your legal problem; or how long the legal work might take; and how much hiring a lawyer might cost.
Only after the consultation, you can decide if you want to hire the lawyer to work for you.
