What is the community response to the victim’s lack of access to independent legal advice?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Rubin v. Home Depot Canada Inc., 2012 ONSC 3053 (CanLII):

It is not clear to me that the community response to this factor can be understood definitively, independent of the other three considerations referred to in Titus v. William F. Cooke Enterprises Inc., supra. Certainly, it is easier to make the determination bearing those factors in mind. A consideration of them serves only to underscore the conclusion. 2. Victim’s lack of independent legal advice or other suitable advice
