SLR Assist

Prototype

Free · Plain language · Built on CLAS guides

If your Residential Tenancy hearing wasn’t fair, a judge can take another look.

That’s called a judicial review. SLR Assist helps you figure out whether it fits your situation — and if you decide to go ahead, it prepares the court documents with you, step by step.

No account needed. You talk, we listen — no forms to start.

What SLR Assist does

Understand where you stand

Your deadlines, your options short of court, and an honest read on how strong your case looks — in plain language, before you commit to anything.

Prepare the court documents

The Petition (Form 66) and Affidavit (Form 109), drafted from your own story in proper legal form. You approve every word.

Get to the hearing

Filing, fee waivers, serving the right people, pausing an eviction while you wait — an ordered checklist with the dates that matter.

The journey, step by step
  1. 01

    Your story

    Say what happened out loud — no forms, no legal words needed.

    What we heard

    Check the facts we heard; answer a few short questions.

    Your situation

    See your deadlines, your options, and your possible legal grounds.

    Choose: continue on your own, hand off to CLAS, or stop here.

  5. 05

    Petition

    Draft the petition that starts your judicial review.

    Turn your story into sworn evidence with exhibits.

  7. 07

    Next steps

    File, serve, pause the eviction, and prepare for court.

What this tool is not

SLR Assist is not a lawyer, and it doesn’t give legal advice. It gives you legal information from guides written by CLAS lawyers, organizes your facts, and prepares drafts for you to review. Judicial review is demanding, and no tool can promise an outcome. If your situation is complicated — or you just want a human — CLAS is there.

SLR Assist gives legal information, not legal advice. It was built from public guides by the Community Legal Assistance Society. Your situation may be different — when in doubt, talk to a lawyer or legal advocate.

Stage 1 — Welcome & orientation

What's happening

The SLR lands here after their RTB hearing went badly — often from a link in a CLAS intake email, a legal clinic, or judicialreviewbc.ca. The page sets expectations: what this tool can and cannot do, and that it is not legal advice.

Simulated here

Nothing on this page is simulated — it is the real entry experience. The demo controls at the bottom of the screen are for you, the reviewer, and would not exist in production.

In production

This page would link back to CLAS intake, offer language selection, and log consent to the tool's terms before any personal information is collected.
