If you do not stand up with someone your rights will soon be gone see
details on the Access To Justice Act in Ontario. Your rights are
being taken away from you with your own vote and non-action.
One way to do that is to
communicate with your lawyer using faxes instead of making phone calls.
When you send your lawyer a fax, you have a record of the instructions you
are giving them. Now they are on the hook to follow those
instructions.
