Question: I reside in Oshawa. I am owed approximately $1900 by a Sudbury resident. Can I commence proceedings from here or do I have to travel to Sudbury to do so? Do I need counsel?
Answer: As a general rule you must commence legal action where the debtor resides, which in this case would be Sudbury, unless the debt arose in Oshawa (because for example the person lived there at the time). This appears to be a small claims court matter so counsel is probably not required, however given the distances involved counsel would probably be advisable.
