Questions We Hear Most.
I received a termination package. Should I sign it, or is it worth having reviewed?
Almost always worth reviewing. The first package offered is rarely the last, and the release language often extends further than the compensation reflects. A short consultation frequently pays for itself many times over.
We are considering a large restructuring. When should we bring you in?
As early as possible. Advice at the design stage costs a fraction of advice after the fact, and the design of the process is where most exposure originates.
Do you appear at the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario and the courts?
Yes. Our employment partner has appeared at every level of court and tribunal in the province and has argued matters before the Supreme Court of Canada.
Do you act for individuals as well as employers?
Yes. Both. The perspectives inform each other, and we are careful about conflicts.
