Commonly, employers do not think they need a lawyer to provide them with advice about employment law until they have a problem. Once they`ve been faced with a costly law suit, however, they quickly realize the benefit of having advice before making a decision.

We have experience in providing employers with piece of mind – through the development of Policy and Procedure Manuals, Employment Contracts, disciplining employees, terminating employees, and dealing with WSIB Workwell Audits, Employment Standards Act and Human Rights Code complaints. If you have a problem in your work place – we can help.

Harassment or bullying in the workplace is a very serious matter. An employer has an obligation to provide a safe work environment, where the employee is treated with dignity and respect. Depending on how the employer deals with a complaint, certain kinds of harassment may be considered constructive dismissal.

Many times, harassment or bullying will not be objectively clear to an employer, or it may be carried out by individuals who are neither supervisory nor managerial. In all of these cases, it is important that you meet with an employment lawyer who can counsel you through your options and what steps you may wish to take to protect your legal rights.

Whether you’re being sued for an alleged breach of the Human Rights Code or you feel that your rights have been violated, we can assist you with your concerns. We have years of experience attending at the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, acting on behalf of corporations and individuals alike.

The average person spends more time at work than they do at home – so it`s no wonder that when being faced with issues at work can be one of the more stressful things to deal with. Our office can help guide you through dealing with issues of unfair discipline, harassment, occupational health and safety breaches, wrongful dismissal, constructive dismissal, reviewing severance packages, and any other dispute relating to your employment.
