Types of Debt Claims Faizal Roy Handles

Whether you're a business chasing an unpaid invoice or an individual owed money from a private loan, Faizal Roy can pursue your claim through Ontario's courts.

๐Ÿงพ

Unpaid Invoices

Suppliers, contractors, and service providers can pursue non-paying clients for outstanding invoices through Ontario's courts. Faizal Roy sends demand letters and, if necessary, commences proceedings to enforce payment.

โš–๏ธ

Small Claims Court

Ontario's Small Claims Court handles debts up to $35,000 โ€” faster, cheaper, and more accessible than Superior Court. Faizal Roy prepares your claim, attends hearings, and maximizes your recovery.

๐Ÿ›๏ธ

Superior Court Debt Recovery

For debts exceeding $35,000, claims proceed in Ontario Superior Court. Faizal Roy handles the full litigation process โ€” pleadings, discoveries, motions, and trial โ€” to secure judgment against the debtor.

๐Ÿ“œ

Judgment Enforcement

Already have a court judgment but the debtor won't pay? Faizal Roy pursues enforcement through wage garnishment, bank account seizure, liens on property, and examination of the debtor's assets.

๐Ÿค

Commercial Loans & Private Debt

Unpaid personal loans, promissory notes, shareholder loans, or private lending agreements. Faizal Roy enforces repayment through Ontario's civil courts on behalf of lenders and creditors.

๐Ÿ 

Property & Rent Arrears

Landlords, property managers, and homeowners can pursue debt claims for unpaid rent, damage deposits, and other property-related financial obligations through Ontario civil courts.

Enforcement Tools

Winning Judgment Is Only Half the Battle

Getting a court judgment is step one. Faizal Roy can also pursue enforcement if a debtor refuses to pay voluntarily.

๐Ÿ’ผ

Wage Garnishment

A court order requiring the debtor's employer to redirect a portion of their wages directly to you until the debt is paid. Highly effective where the debtor is employed.

๐Ÿฆ

Bank Account Garnishment

Directing a financial institution to freeze and transfer funds from the debtor's bank account toward satisfying the judgment. Fast and direct enforcement.

๐Ÿก

Writ of Seizure & Sale

A writ filed against real property or personal assets. It can trigger a lien against the debtor's land and block any sale until your debt is paid from the proceeds.

๐Ÿ”

Examination of Debtor

A court examination compels a debtor to attend and disclose assets, income sources, and financial details under oath โ€” essential intelligence for targeting the right enforcement tools.

FAQ

Debt Recovery Questions Answered

How much does it cost to sue someone in Small Claims Court in Ontario?

Filing fees in Ontario Small Claims Court range from roughly $75 to $235 depending on the claim amount. If you win, the court often orders the losing party to pay your costs. Faizal Roy can walk you through the expected costs before proceeding.

How long does debt recovery take in Ontario?

Timelines vary. If a demand letter prompts payment, resolution can happen in weeks. Small Claims Court proceedings often take 3โ€“12 months. Superior Court litigation for larger debts can take longer. Acting quickly improves your odds of fast recovery.

What if the debtor says they have no money?

You can still obtain a judgment and enforce it later. Judgments in Ontario are good for 20 years. If the debtor acquires assets, income, or property in the future, you can enforce against those. An examination of debtor hearing can also reveal hidden assets.

Can I recover my legal costs from the debtor?

In Small Claims Court, the successful party may recover up to 15% of the amount claimed in costs. In Superior Court, partial indemnity costs are typically awarded to the winning party. Faizal Roy can advise on what cost recovery is realistic in your case.

I already have a judgment but the person won't pay. What can I do?

Faizal Roy can pursue enforcement through wage garnishment, bank account garnishment, writs of seizure and sale, or an oral examination of the debtor. Having a judgment is a strong position โ€” enforcement is the next step.

What's the limitation period for debt claims in Ontario?

Generally 2 years from when you knew or ought to have known that the debt was owed and payment was refused. Some types of debts have different rules. Act promptly โ€” a missed limitation period bars your claim permanently.
