e-Court Canada will re-shape the future of Canadian Litigation. Forces transforming the legal industry promise the emergence of new models, such as e-Court that will allow clients to reap huge efficiencies. It took our IT development team five years and in excess of $3 million investment and growing, to develop a database which unravelled the legal complexities yet adheres to strict Canadian legal laws. To our knowledge there is to-date no privately funded organization which is able to match e-Court's innovative database and other structures. We can handle a minimum of #20,000 cases simultaneously; Welcome to Canada's most exciting non-governmental arbitration. Let us show you how !
Our Mission statement: e-Court Canada aims to be a champion for the consumer, achieving this by offering passionate and visionary values. These are: Value for Money: To offer honest, simple, and transparent pricing. Quality of Service: To offer services without compromising any of e-Courts values. Specifically to be professional and with unquestionable integrity. For the People: To offer conflict resolution services for everyone, not just those who can afford it. Challenging: To offer new and innovative ideas, to always push the boundaries of conventional thinking. Force for Good: e-Court would like to see itself as making a positive contribution to peoples lives and as a force for good. No hidden costs. We do not
occupy expensive mortar and brick offices and we compensate our
arbitrators with a just remuneration which pays the professional for
their time and not for "pushing" paper work. The time an experienced
judge and/or arbitrator spends on your case, is pure thinking, not
paperwork. This saves in cost. A portion of the amount in contest ( called the escrow ) is deposited in an escrow account with RBC Royal Bank prior to the start of the litigation process. RBC is one of largest & strongest global banks. e-Court engaged a
Professional Chartered Accounting firm to conduct an annual audit of its
financial records. Members are privi to receive the independent annual
audit review reports. e-Court cases take no more
than six weeks (excluding a possible appeal of four weeks). This makes
the process to cost much less than ordinary courts, where to obtain a
ruling takes on average between 70-90 weeks. e-Court is extremely
flexible because the individual or company can start a case using
e-Court with/without the assistance of a legal professional. In many
situations the claimant and/or defendant feel they wish to avoid legal
expenses and obtain justice without expenses from legal counsel. However
our members can always select a suitable listed legal professional. Members have full &
complete control and 24/7 "in-sight" in all related records and in real
time. All "active" members will have their own personalized admin panels with
extensive search capabilities. Furthermore it is more difficult for legal representatives of both parties, should they so desire, to collude and unnecessarily "pad" their legal fees. This is because of the set fee schedule & time frame of 6 weeks. Just like the outside
world, people need to be confident before they proceed down an unknown
path. e-Court has taken all measures to safeguard information. Our website is heavily protected like internet banking with leading banking institutions. Visitors can see a green padlock icon in the address field area of their browser. This means e-Court's
operations are secured by 256-bit SSL, the highest security in the
industry. Security remains constant in our attention. Notice the daily
updated security certificate on bottom of the page. Socials are being held each month
throughout the country, except during July and December when no events
take place. E-Court believes that aside from the many advantages that
the internet offers, there is a big role for meeting "eye to eye" with
legal professionals in a social setting. Often,
a speaker is invited to address important widely ocurring legal issues.
Socials are announced via email to all e-Court Canada members.The venue
will be suitably located with adequate parking.

Last but by no means least ... e-Court organizes OFFLINE NETWORKING
Most democracies experience clogged up legal systems, especially where it regards civil and common law areas.
Apart from the unacceptable time it takes to find judgement in regular government courts, the actual litigation/conflict-resolution process adds a mystique for many people and makes the entire process through the traditional courts & tradional counselling venues a very frustrating and intimidating experience to the layperson.
In recognition of the above, e-Court has been introduced to provide competent, affordable, simple, speedy and transparent justice for everyone. Moreover, with e-Court, one knows the duration and exact expenses of the case beforehand.
With e-Court justice no longer goes to the party with the longest financial breath.

Moreover, private individuals and businesses agree upfront with their attorneys the maximum period in advance and total costs. This will ensure that e-Court does not result in financial surprises. It is important to note that e-Court is extremely flexible because the individual or company can start a case using e-Court with/without the assistance of a legal professional. In many situations the claimant and/or defendant feel they wish to avoid legal expenses and obtain justice without expenses from legal counsel.
What do you mean e-Court offers Transparency?
ANSWER : Members have full & complete control and "in-sight" in all related member records "at any time". Groping in the dark. Did you know that more than 95% of all litigations never reach the traditional courts but get settled by both parties without upfront knowledge of size of legal fees and duration of negotiations, etc ? Does it not make more sense to settle disputes via e-Court where there exist full & transparent upfront knowledge of legal fees and duration for settlement ? Within a set time frame of 6 weeks to solve conflicts via e-Court, it is impossible for the legal representatives of both parties to collude to unnecessarily extend the time to solve conflicts, thereby unnecessarily "padding" their legal fees.
What do you mean e-Court offers Security ?
ANSWER : e-Court has taken all measures to safeguard information. The website is heavily protected like internet banking with leading banking institutions. Our operations are secured by 256-bit SSL, the highest security in the industry. The security of the site remains constant in our attention. The SSL protocol is used by millions of e-Business providers to protect their customers ensuring their online transactions remain confidential. In order to be able to use the SSL protocol, a web server requires the use of a SSL certificate. Sites will get SSL encryption to cover any area that involves an exchange of data including login boxes, credit card payments, or any personal information. All web browsers have the ability to interact with SSL secured sites so long as the sites SSL is from a recognized Certificate Authority. The Internet has successfully created many new global business opportunities for enterprises conducting online commerce. However, that growth has also attracted fraudsters and cyber criminals. The increasing awareness of online fraudsters and cyber criminals has presented an opportunity for ecommerce providers to capitalize on consumer fears by displaying trust indicators. Just like the real world, people need to be confident before they proceed down an unknown path. When a SSL Digital Certificate is installed on a web site, users can see a green padlock icon at the bottom area of the navigator. View also Video
