How Can We Help You?
Wrongful Termination
The dismissal of an employee that violates the law or a contract. This can include discrimination, retaliation, or termination in violation of public policy. Employees may be entitled to compensation or reinstatement if they are wrongfully terminated.
Human Rights Violations
Discriminatory practices based on race, gender, religion, age, or disability. Employers are prohibited from engaging in such practices and employees have the right to file complaints and seek compensation for damages caused by such violations.
Changes to your Employment Contract
(Constructive Dismissal) Refers to an employer making significant changes to an employee’s terms and conditions of employment without their consent. This can include changes to pay, hours, or duties. Employees may have legal recourse for such changes.
Disputes with Professional Regulatory Bodies
Conflicts between professionals and the regulatory organizations that oversee their industry. These disputes can include disciplinary actions, revocation of licenses, or other legal issues related to professional conduct. Legal representation may be necessary in such cases.
Long Term Disability Denial
The rejection of an employee’s claim for disability benefits that are intended to provide income replacement during an extended period of absence from work due to illness or injury. Employees may have legal options if their claim is denied.
WCB Benefit Denial
The rejection of an employee’s claim for workers’ compensation benefits due to a work-related injury or illness. Employees may have legal options if their claim is denied, including appealing the decision or pursuing legal action against the employer or insurance company.
Flexible Fee Arrangements
BEWARE of firms that push for contingency arrangements
IE: working for “no money up front”
This may NOT be beneficial for you. In some cases it may be much better for you pay hourly for an action with high monetary return — keeping much more in your pocket.
