Is this legal advice?
Self-help template; not legal advice. Use of this template does not create a solicitor–client relationship. The Legal Profession Act (CCSM c.L107) permits self-representation in Manitoba ESB / MLB proceedings; ESB filing is FREE. For free support: Manitoba ESB 1-800-821-4307; Community Unemployed Help Centre; Public Interest Law Centre; Community Legal Education Association. For wrongful-dismissal common-law damages above ESC minimums, consult an employment lawyer.
What if I need to change something afterwards?
Tell us and we will either adjust the letter and send you the updated version at no cost, or refund you in full — your choice. If we can’t deliver what you paid for, the refund is automatic. Full terms are on our promise page.
Do I have to pay to know if I have a case?
No. The rights encyclopedia on this site is free and cites the same primary sources the letter does. Read the relevant guide first — plenty of situations are resolved by a phone call to a free statutory body, and where one exists we say so.
