1. Confirm the court for your dispute
People in Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon commonly look to the Brampton Small Claims Court for Peel matters. The correct venue still depends on the parties and events under Rule 6; your home address alone does not decide where a claim belongs. Read the court location on existing documents before starting a new file.
A Small Claims money dispute is not a municipal parking or provincial offences matter. Do not take a defence to the Mississauga provincial offences counter or assume an online municipal payment page is a court filing service.

2. Use the Small Claims-specific contact
Brampton Small Claims Court
7765 Hurontario Street, Brampton, Ontario
General Small Claims inquiries: 905-456-4701
[email protected]
Contact details checked November 9, 2026. Confirm the current court listing and your hearing notice before travelling or sending documents.
The nearby courthouse facilities have different addresses and court offices. Use the Small Claims listing, not a general criminal or family-court contact. A general-inquiry email is not blanket permission to file or serve documents by email.

3. File through the correct regional route
Peel is outside the Toronto filing region. Follow Ontario’s current Small Claims online-filing instructions for non-Toronto courts and select the correct court office. A party living in Toronto does not automatically make a Brampton case a Toronto portal filing.
Check accepted document types, payment or waiver options and urgent-filing restrictions. Save the court’s acceptance and issued copy. If your deadline or hearing is close, contact the court for the permitted method instead of relying on portal processing time.

4. Prepare for the actual hearing and any assistance
The notice or order tells you whether to attend in person, by video, by telephone or in writing. Confirm the courtroom or connection instructions and permitted documents. Ask early about interpretation, accessibility, French-language services and technical difficulties. If attending in person, allow for travel, parking and security.
Notaryspace’s Mississauga office is a separate service provider, not the courthouse. You can contact us to ask about available document or commissioning assistance, scope and fees. An enquiry or notary appointment does not file your claim, serve another party or suspend a court deadline.
