BLAC Intake Form

Complete an Online Intake Form Below

BLAC provides free legal services to Black people in Ontario who have low and no income and who have been treated unfairly because they are Black.

If you need our help, please fill in this form.

Using technology (e.g. email) to communicate has risks. If you contact us using the internet (e.g. email, website), we cannot guarantee that the information you send will be kept confidential. If you do not feel comfortable emailing us this form, please call us instead.

If you send us an email, fill out this form, or contact us in any other way, this does not mean that we are your lawyers or legal representatives. It does not create a solicitor‐client relationship. You do not become our client, unless and until we agree to represent you. If we agree to represent you, we will enter into a written agreement with you.

After emailing this form to BLAC, someone will call you or email you within three (3) weekdays. We may:

  • Give you legal information
  • Give you legal advice
  • Help you represent yourself
  • Represent you for all or some of your case
  • Refer you to another person or organization

The type of service that we will give you depends on things like the kind of legal problem that you have, your income, and your assets.

Thank you for contact Intake at Black Legal Action Centre.

We recognize that finding culturally-appropriate support—especially during a difficult or overwhelming time—may be difficult. While we are starting the intake process for your matter, we want to ensure you have access to immediate, trauma-informed support.

The Ontario Human Rights Code is a law that says that if a rule, policy, place, or practice has a negative effect on a person because of that person’s disability, age, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, or other protected ground, organizations like BLAC have to make changes (“accommodations”) for that person.
