About Jean Auberto Juste Law Office

Jean Auberto Juste Law Office is a solo law practice on Youville Drive in the Orleans area of Ottawa. Jean Auberto Juste holds a Bachelor of Social Science and a Bachelor of Laws and is a graduate of the French Common Law program at the University of Ottawa, and has represented clients for more than 10 years in immigration, family law, wills and estate planning, insurance law, and civil litigation. The office serves clients in English, French, and Creole, giving clients a choice of language for what can already be a stressful process.

The firm's stated approach leans toward settling matters rather than fighting them out in court. On family files, Juste describes legal action as the last solution for clients and works instead toward cohabitation agreements, separation agreements, and negotiated settlements, while still litigating before the Ontario Superior Court of Justice when a case needs it. The insurance practice takes the same tack, often turning to mediation early in a claim. For wills and estates, the office frames its work as heritage planning: preparing wills, powers of attorney, and estate trustee appointments so a client's wishes are set out before a disability or death forces the issue.
