Let's Meet
I'm Jon, and I am a licensed Paralegal.
I am a proud graduate of the University of Windsor and St. Clair College, with nearly 15 years of experience in private practice in Windsor, Ontario.
​
While pursuing my degree in International Relations and Political Science at the University of Windsor, I began my career in various law offices within the city. My roles included trial aide, process server, and law clerk, eventually leading me to focus on legal research and drafting. In 2010, I graduated from St. Clair College as part of their inaugural paralegal class and established Sparling Paralegal in Windsor in June 2011.
​
Initially considering a career as a lawyer, I found my true calling when paralegals became regulated by the Law Society of Ontario. Growing up as the son of a landlord, and now a landlord myself, I have always been involved in renovations and construction alongside lease agreements. My hands-on experience in the construction trades has proven invaluable in my paralegal practice, allowing me to assist clients with landlord-tenant lease agreements and provide support to contractors in Small Claims Court.
​
While lawyers play a vital role in our community, their fees can often be prohibitive for those seeking legal assistance. With the Small Claims Court limits now raised to $35,000, paralegals can effectively help resolve monetary disputes without the high costs associated with hiring a lawyer. I prefer to focus on small claims related to contracts, unpaid bills, incomplete work, property damage, and failed sales. Whether you need to evict a tenant for property damage, respond to an eviction notice for late rent, collect debts, or address contractor disputes over faulty workmanship, our licensed paralegal services are available at a fraction of the cost of traditional legal representation.
​
I believe that affordable justice, trusted experience, and honest legal advice are essential qualities for any paralegal service provider. At Sparling Paralegal, I am committed to delivering these values to the people of Windsor.
