Legal and Real Estate Services
Legal Services
As the City’s in-house legal counsel, Legal Services provides expertise to The City of Brantford's Council, Commissions and Departments. Lawyers in the division provide comprehensive legal advice about many City services and operations, but do not provide legal advice to members of the public.
The City's Legal Services department also works closely with the Insurance and Risk Management department to provide guidance regarding policy implementation and processing of claims.
