Why You Need Legal Help with Appeals from Arbitration or Tribunal Decisions
Appealing a decision from an arbitrator or administrative tribunal is highly complex. These appeals are governed by strict statutory frameworks, narrow grounds for review, and unforgiving deadlines. The appeal may proceed as a full appeal, a judicial review, or a statutory reconsideration process—all of which require precision and deep understanding of appellate and administrative law.
A single misstep can expose you to:
-
Enforcement of unfair or incorrect awards
-
Significant financial liability
-
Orders that impact your business, property, or professional status
-
Irreversible findings of fact or credibility
-
Loss of rights if appeal deadlines are missed
-
Permanently binding decisions, even if legally flawed
Whether you are appealing or responding to an appeal, you need counsel who understands appellate standards, administrative law principles, and the complex rules governing arbitral and tribunal decisions.
At ME Law, we prepare focused, persuasive, and legally rigorous arguments. We analyze the record, identify reviewable errors, prepare appeal materials with precision, and present a compelling case before the court or tribunal.
We provide strategic appellate representation to protect your interests before an incorrect decision becomes final.

How do I start?
The first step is to book a complimentary intake call with one of our intake specialists. During this initial conversation, we’ll gather some preliminary details about your matter, identify the nature of the dispute, and determine whether it falls within our areas of practice.
If we believe we can assist, we’ll then proceed with a conflict check to ensure there are no conflicts of interest under the Law Society of Ontario’s Rules of Professional Conduct. Once cleared, we can schedule a consultation with one of our lawyers, where we will review your situation in more detail, discuss potential legal strategies, and outline next steps for formal engagement.
This process ensures that every inquiry is handled carefully, ethically, and efficiently—so that we can provide you with informed guidance right from the outset.
Can you explain the typical steps involved?
Our process is designed to be clear, efficient, and transparent from start to finish.
- Initial Intake Call:
We begin with a complimentary intake call to understand the general nature of your matter, confirm it falls within our areas of practice, and gather preliminary information. - Conflict Check:
Before receiving any detailed or confidential information, we conduct a conflict of interest check as required by the Law Society of Ontario. This ensures we can represent you without any professional conflicts. - Consultation with a Lawyer:
Once cleared, we schedule a formal consultation — either in person or remotely — where we review your situation in detail, answer your questions, and outline preliminary legal options or next steps. - Retainer and Engagement:
If you decide to proceed, we provide a Retainer Agreement outlining the scope of work, estimated costs, and billing structure. Upon execution and receipt of the retainer, we officially open your file. - Case Strategy and Next Steps:
Your lawyer will then prepare a strategy plan and begin working on your matter — whether that involves drafting pleadings, engaging in negotiations, or preparing for court proceedings — while keeping you informed throughout.
At every stage, we emphasize clarity, communication, and transparency so you always know what to expect and how your case is progressing.
Why is it necessary to complete a conflict check form after the initial call?
Efforts to avoid conflicts of interest are required by the Law Society of Ontario and form a fundamental part of legal ethics and professional regulation.
A conflict check ensures that our firm has never represented—or is not currently representing—any party whose interests may be adverse to yours. This process protects both you and our firm by confirming that we can act for you with full independence and loyalty.
The duty to avoid conflicts applies to past, current, and prospective clients and is set out in the Rules of Professional Conduct (the Model Code) as well as by decisions of the Supreme Court of Canada, including R. v. Neil and Canadian National Railway Co. v. McKercher LLP.
In practice, we conduct conflict checks before receiving detailed information about your matter. This step is an essential safeguard to uphold professional integrity and client trust.
How quickly can you schedule an initial call with a lawyer?
In most cases, we can schedule your consultation within 24–48 hours after completing the initial intake and conflict check process. This ensures that your matter is properly screened and assigned to the most suitable lawyer on our team.

Reviews &
Testimonials
DIXI ENERGY2025-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. May’s legal representation was nothing short of exceptional. We were going through an extremely difficult and emotionally draining situation, and from the very beginning, May showed total dedication, professionalism, and—most importantly—a genuine care for our rights and well-being. Throughout the entire process, she made sure we were always kept informed about what was happening and explained everything clearly so we didn’t feel lost or overwhelmed. It was obvious that she—and her whole team—put real effort into advancing our interests every step of the way. We really noticed the difference compared to the other side’s lawyers, who simply didn’t show the same level of commitment or attention, at least from our experience. What I appreciated most about May was her honesty. She didn’t try to sugar-coat anything or make unrealistic promises. Instead, she gave us a truthful picture of our case right from the beginning—what the risks were, what might happen, and what to expect. That kind of honesty made us feel we could really trust her. She was also very clear about legal fees. Yes, her services are on the higher end, but she was upfront about all the costs, how the billing worked, and what might affect it. That kind of transparency is rare, and it meant we were never caught off guard. Beyond her own impressive knowledge and skill, May has built a very strong and well-run firm. From her assistants, to the associates we worked with, and Luna—her accountant—everyone was just lovely to deal with. They were responsive, respectful, and clearly cared about doing things right. All in all, we felt completely supported. Not only does May know what she’s doing, but she truly cares—and that made all the difference for us. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend May to anyone who needs strong, honest, and capable legal help. Farzad2025-07-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the privilege to work with May and team on a tough shareholder buyout! Cannot say enough of how dedicated and passionate May and her team is for their business! I would definitely recommend them for any legal services specially on litigation side. Keep going May and I look forward working with you! Liubov Melnikova2025-06-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been ME Laws client since the day May started the firm. I have seen the firm grow from nothing to a well oil machine. I can rely on anyone in the firm to work with because May has built something try fantastic! God job ME Law. Olga Milman2025-06-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at ME Law are a God send. They are always available when I need them. They got me a big payout and worked very closely with me on my corporate matter. On top of all that, I have never seen a firm ever in Toronto that is very detailed with their dockets. I know exactly where my money has gone. They are a 5+++ firm. Adelya M2025-05-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a complex cross-border contract issue with our firm, and they handled it with incredible care and confidence. I had a great experience with the ME Law team. brii zoo2025-01-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience working with ME Law. The senior counsel was very competent and professional in our interactions and the handling of my case. I felt very supported and safe working with everyone at the firm and the outcome was exceptional. I would recommend anyone with a civil case to give ME law a call. Brittany Rose Imran Latif2024-01-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We contacted melaw yesterday to advise us on responding to a Contractor’s lawyer threatening legal action. Even though melaw’s lawyers’ schedule was full, the staff realized the immediacy of our request and constantly followed up so that they were able to squeeze us in for 5 minutes between meetings and advise us on our issue. We would highly recommend melaw to anyone looking for legal advice and representation.
