LTB – Landlord & Tenant Board Disputes

The Reality of Post-LTB Enforcement

Securing an LTB order or Small Claims judgment is often only the first step.

In many cases, subjects:

• Become non-responsive
• Vacate suddenly prior to enforcement
• Avoid service
• Conceal their new residence or employment
• Don’t update their government IDs (driver’s license) to reflect a change in address – as per the law

Without confirmed intelligence, enforcement efforts can stall , leaving landlords and creditors with limited options.

How Atlas Assists Landlords & Creditors

Atlas specializes in assisting landlords, paralegals, and legal professionals in locating evasive former tenants and developing the intelligence required to proceed with enforcement.

Our services include:

• Locating former tenants through advanced skip-tracing
• Confirming current place of residence
• Identity development and verification
• Employment and workplace identification
• Asset intelligence for garnishment and recovery
• Discreet delivery of legal documents (where appropriate)

These services are often used to move matters forward when traditional enforcement efforts have failed.

Strategic Surveillance

In certain cases, timing is critical.

Where a tenant remains in the rental unit but is expected to vacate or evade enforcement, surveillance may be conducted to develop forward-looking intelligence.

This may include:

• Confirming daily routines and movement patterns
• Identifying place of employment
• Monitoring relocation activity
• Following subjects to newly established residences

This allows investigations to continue even after the subject vacates , significantly increasing the likelihood of successful enforcement.

From Identification to Enforcement

Atlas integrates multiple investigative services to support enforcement outcomes.

A typical enforcement-driven investigation may involve:

1. Skip-Tracing to identify likely residence

2. Surveillance to confirm presence or employment

3. Asset Intelligence to identify recovery options

4. Discreet document delivery following confirmation

This structured approach allows matters to progress efficiently and reduces the likelihood of failed attempts.

Supporting Tenants in Bad-Faith Matters

Atlas also assists tenants involved in disputes where there are concerns of unlawful or bad-faith actions by landlords.

Common matters include:

• N12 notices issued under false pretences
• Unlawful or forced evictions
• Misrepresentation of intended occupancy
• Harassment or improper conduct

Investigations may include surveillance, occupancy confirmation, and discreet inquiries to determine whether representations made by the landlord are accurate.

These findings can provide critical evidence in LTB proceedings.
