Welcome to the World of Employment Law.
This site is not intended to give you legal advice – you will need to consult a lawyer to guide your actions. We will, however, assist you in finding and retaining a quality lawyer to help you with your claim, or allow you to get some basic preventive advice on any employment issue – our services are at no charge to you!
Here you will learn all you will ever need to know about employee rights on termination, human rights issues, post termination obligations and all other questions arising from termination of employment in a non- unionized work environment.
Many lawyers create websites to self-promote their abilities as employment law gurus, when in fact the opposite is true. In one known case, a young lawyer described himself as an employment law expert when, in fact, he had not yet argued one case in court, or even taken a case to discovery !
It is very hard for most people unfamiliar with the litigation process to know what lawyer to retain, or what questions to ask to ensure that a qualified advocate is being hired.
We will review the issues confronting you and make sure that the lawyer to whom we refer you has experience with your specific fact situation, including trial experience. Many lawyers who profess to be employment law experts very rarely go to court – a fact well known to the opposing counsel and one which weakens the strength of your negotiations. Some are the exact opposite – they want to take every case to trial to run up the costs, to the detriment of their client.
The lawyers to whom we refer cases are all personally known to us, vetted and approved by us and known to be competent, able employment lawyers capable of representing your interests through preliminary negotiation and to trial, if required – no pretend qualifications – you will get the real thing!
All the lawyers to whom we refer cases throughout Canada will provide one hour free advice for any case involving potential litigation.
