If you’ve been terminated, laid off or lost your job for no apparent reason, you may be entitled to significantly more compensation than your former employer has offered. 

Terminating employment “with cause” and denying severance on the basis of “conduct” is often just the first stance of an employer seeking to limit their own financial obligations. An experienced employment lawyer can ensure you get the severance you’re entitled to.

Ontario Human Rights legislation guarantees every employee freedom from discrimination based on a wide-sweeping list of human realities. If you believe you’ve been terminated for any reason that is based on your mobility, lifestyle, origin, health or family status (e.g. pregnancy), you may be entitled to compensation.

No one should ever be terminated for raising concerns about health and safety or human rights violations in a workplace. This type of  termination (legally known as reprisal) is unlawful on its face and requires investigation by an experienced legal professional.
