Employment lawyers advise employees and employers on termination and severance, employment contracts, workplace rights and disputes.
Ontario's Limitations Act, 2002 sets a basic two-year limitation period for most civil claims, with important exceptions. Speak to a lawyer early so that a deadline does not run out.
Employment rights in Ontario come from the Employment Standards Act, 2000 and from your contract and the common law, so your entitlement may be more than the statutory minimum.
Some employment lawyers offer a free or low-cost first review of a severance offer, and some work for a percentage of any improvement. Ask before you commit. Ask about disbursements (third-party costs), taxes, and what happens if your matter changes in scope. Many firms offer a first consultation, but confirm whether it is free.
