Employment & Labour Law

We help employers and employees navigate complex rights and obligations specific to the employment relationship.

Helping employers make informed human resource decisions

For employers, sound human resource practices and positive employment relationships, can mean the difference between business success or failure.

Employers and human resource professionals count on us to provide carefully considered advice and strategic solutions at every stage of the employment relationship.  Getting it right at the time of hire or minimizing potential liability at the time of termination requires the right advice from the right employment lawyer.  We can help.

Helping employees protect their rights and interests

For employees, employment provides for financial security.  It is a means to earn a livelihood for themselves and their families.  It is also a source of dignity and self-respect.

When you are hired or when your employment is terminated you need the right advice from the right employment lawyer.  If you feel harassed or discriminated at work you need to understand your rights and options.  Failing to do so can have costly consequences.  We can help.
