Schedule a solicitor's bill assessment without retyping party details

Clients and solicitors scheduling an assessment of a solicitor's bill under the Solicitors Act repeat party names, addresses, and counsel contacts on every Notice of Appointment for Assessment. This guide is an example of storing them once in hivi.

Official form and source

Start from the official source and always use the current version — form numbers and links can change:

• Service page: Solicitors Act assessment forms — ontariocourtforms.on.ca
• Form (Central Forms Repository): Notice of Appointment for Assessment — rr-0344

What this form is about

Form rr-0344 is the Notice of Appointment for Assessment used in Solicitors Act bill-of-costs proceedings under the Rules of Civil Procedure — confirm service deadlines on ontariocourtforms.on.ca.

Before you start: what to gather

• Client full legal name and address.
• Solicitor or firm name and address for service.
• Bill of costs and assessment hearing date — prepare with counsel.
• Court file number if the assessment is court-linked.

Confirm the current process on ontario.ca.
