Is that legal? - Should I represent myself in a court case? - I have a criminal record and it is keeping me from getting a job. - My dog bit the neighbour's child. What should I do? These are the kinds of questions people ask on Strictly Legal, and in this book, Michael Cochrane provides no-nonsense, understandable answers to Canadians' typical legal problems.
