Privacy & legal notice

The content of this website is provided for general information only. It is not legal advice and should not be relied on as such. The law changes, and the right answer always depends on the facts of your situation. Please speak with a lawyer before acting on anything you read here.

Visiting this website, or contacting Shajjan Law by phone, email or the contact form, does not create a lawyer–client relationship. A lawyer–client relationship begins only once we have confirmed that we have no conflict of interest and have agreed in writing to act for you.

Until then, please do not send us confidential or time-sensitive information. We may be unable to act for you — for example, if we already represent another party in the same matter — and information you send before we have agreed to act may not be protected.

When you submit the contact form we receive the details you provide: your name, email address, phone number (if given), the type of matter and your message. We use this information only to respond to your inquiry, check for conflicts of interest and, if we act for you, to open your file.

We do not sell your information, and we do not use it for marketing without your consent. Our website is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes technical information such as IP addresses to deliver the site securely and protect it from abuse.

We handle personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and our professional obligations of confidentiality as licensees of the Law Society of Ontario. We keep inquiry information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes above, or as required by law and professional rules.

You may ask to see, correct or delete the personal information we hold about you by contacting us at shajjan@shajjanlaw.ca. If you have concerns about how we have handled your information, please let us know so that we can address them.

Where this website links to other sites, we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.
