Wrongful Dismissal
Unfortunately, it is a well known fact that upon termination, many employers compensate their employees at the lowest end of what they are reasonably entitled and too often some even attempt to violate the basic minimums required by law.
Michael’s extensive experience in employment law has made him a fierce advocate of the rights of individuals in seeking fair treatment from their employers. During times of uncertainty or turmoil in employment situations, having a solid understanding of your rights and entitlements under the Employment Standards Act, Human Rights Code and at common-law empowers you to make good decisions for you, your career and your family.
In today’s climate it is imperative that every employee make certain their rights and entitlements are respected during times of termination or other employment change. It is especially important that employees understand their entitlements before any documents such as termination agreements or releases are signed, as these documents are binding and very often not written with the employee’s best interest in mind.
Michael’s understanding of current business practices allows him to provide practical advice and help you determine the best course of action for you. To ensure you are compensated fairly and treated with respect, Michael will use all methods available including negotiation, mediation, or trial.
