See how we help →Three areas of focus, handled thoroughly.
We focus only on Ontario employment law, which lets us move quickly and tell you early what your case is realistically worth.
-
01
Dismissals & severance
Many first severance offers fall short of what the law allows. We assess your entitlements under the ESA and common law, then negotiate a better outcome or take the matter to court when needed.
-
02
Employment contracts
We draft and review offer letters, termination clauses, non-solicits and contractor agreements that will hold up if they are ever challenged. Fixed fees are available for most documents.
-
03
Workplace investigations
We carry out independent investigations into harassment, discrimination and misconduct complaints in line with OHSA requirements. We also advise employees who are taking part in an investigation.
From first call to resolution, without surprises.

A written plan & quote

Steady progress
One lawyer handles your file from start to finish. We send updates every week and avoid jargon.
Resolution
Most matters settle within weeks. If yours needs to go further, we are ready to take it to court.
Measured by outcomes for clients.
Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, but they do show how we work.
“I was about to sign a severance offer worth eight weeks. Fairwork negotiated it up to seven months. They were calm and direct the whole way through.”
— Priya, project manager, Etobicoke
“As a 12-person company we had no HR department. They rewrote our contracts for a fixed fee and explained every clause.”
— Marcus, café owner, Leslieville
“Their investigation was fair to everyone involved, and the report gave us a clear path forward.”
— Ellen, operations director, North York
