How to read thisMethod
The frame. Every figure here comes from a fee affidavit, a passing of accounts, a motion record or an officer's report that a court file holds — fees that were filed for approval, which skews to the larger, longer and more contested mandates. It is not a survey of all insolvency work.
The series. The ladder and the tiles use standard hourly rates of named people, in Canadian dollars, on bills with no courtesy discount and on matters with no recognition proceeding. Discounted bills, stated averages and the rare bill that states fees and hours but no rate are kept as separate series and never mixed in. Nothing is drawn from fewer than 12 observations.
What it is not. A court does not test a bill by hours × rate; it asks what value was delivered (Bank of Nova Scotia v. Diemer, 2014 ONCA 851). This page shows what comparable mandates charged, never what a bill should have been. The record holds sixteen Québec fee documents and no French rate tables; it is not a benchmark for Québec.
Every fact carries its document. Each bill and each rate links to the filing that states it; each benchmark cell can be traced to the rates it was computed from through the rates view.
