Work with a Legal Professional on Your Third-Party Internal Investigations

Our team of licensed legal professionals is passionate about employment law and skilled at conducting workplace investigations for both unionized and non-unionized employers and for both provincially and federally governed employers. We’re also familiar with Bill C-65 workplace harassment and violence prevention, as we provide mandatory training on this topic. When you retain our law firm for a workplace investigation, you’ll get a knowledgeable investigator that takes the time to properly analyze the case to arrive at a legally sound conclusion.

Employment laws in Canada are dynamic and constantly evolving. That’s why we provide essential advice and guidance to ensure that your investigation complies with current, applicable laws.

As a business owner, it’s essential to know your responsibilities regarding workplace discipline, dismissal, employment standards, and human rights so you can act in accordance with them. We’ll help you proceed with your third-party workplace investigation considering these responsibilities and rights to prevent mistakes that can result in litigation or a tarnished business reputation.

• Develop interview questions designed to extract important details.
