Services for Employees

Employment Agreements

We believe the review and negotiation of your employment agreements is a key step toward building an effective relationship with your employer. We will assist in helping you understand your rights and obligations under your employment agreement and highlight areas which may be beneficial.

Terminations

Terminations can have significant impacts on employees. If you are concerned about how to navigate employment changes or need to better understand your legal position we can help you review your severance package and provide counsel and support to make the best decision.

Human Rights

If you have been affected by workplace harassment, bullying or discrimination we can review your situation and provide guidance and your legal options.

Professional Regulatory Matters

​We provide support and information to those in regulated professions on a broad range of matters, including professional obligations and negotiating associate agreements and other contracts for service. We regularly review professional work agreements to advise on rights and obligations.

Frequently Questions?

I'm an employer, what's the value of written employment agreements for my staff?

Having written employment agreements in place for all employees is essential in order to clarify and set out the terms of employment for each of your team members.  Without written employment agreements, an employer can be required to provide a departing employee common law notice of termination. This can be considerably higher than the notice required by the Employment Standards Act and be a significant liability for employers.

Why should our company hire a 3rd party workplace investigator?

When a workplace investigation is required, ensuring a comprehensive and objective investigation process is paramount. An experienced and skilled investigator outside of your organization, with knowledge of the applicable law, can help ensure a neutral and thoughtful process

What kind of employment issues can be mediated?

Wrong dismissal, human rights, workplace conflict and almost any other workplace issue.
