- being in debt.
Each section includes sample client problems, summary of the relevant law, recap of information needed from the clients, and suggestions for solving the client’s problem.
As a wikibook:
- the online version is fully linked to legislation, forms, and cases,
- the manual is mobile friendly, and
- a print-on-demand copy is available to order.

This manual replaces Consumer Law and Credit/Debt Law, which was published by the Legal Services Society (Legal Aid BC).
The information we provide on this site explains the law in general and isn’t intended to be used as legal advice for specific legal problems. Because each person’s legal issue is different, it’s a good idea to talk to a lawyer. See Where can I get legal advice? to find legal services.
