WHY CHOOSE OUR LEGAL TEAM

Experienced Employment Lawyers Ready to Help In Case of A Wrongful Dismissal.

We are highly skilled at what we do and many clients are referred to us by their friends.  We are very grateful for their trust.  For decades, our wrongful dismissal lawyers have handled many wrongful dismissal claims for clients in Toronto, Mississauga, and Oakville and across Ontario. Let us help you.

Wrongful Dismissal

Losing your job can be especially challenging, particularly in a tough economy where finding new opportunities takes time. If your employer hasn’t provided proper notice or fair severance, you could have grounds for a wrongful dismissal claim.

Constructive Dismissal

Sometimes employees are pushed out by their employers through tactics that change the employment relationship. These tactics often give employees little other choices than to leave their employment, which causes financial hardship, as well as stress.

Severance Package Reviews

Employers will most often provide employees with a severance package when they are terminated. Employees can accept packages without legal advice, but that can turn out to be a costly mistake.

Harassment And Discrimination

The last place in which individuals want to face bullying, harassment, and discrimination is at work. When you are the target of such behavior, you often don’t know where to turn for help.

Disability (LTD) & Employment - We Do Both

Many law firms practice Disability OR Employment Law but we are experts in BOTH. Our clients often face intertwined Employment and Disability issues and they count on us to help them successfully navigate through it all and we do. Life can be complicated but we make things easier.

EMPLOYMENT & DISABILITY CLAIMS

If you have been terminated while on long-term disability or shortly after returning from disability leave, we can help you. Our office is experienced in dealing with cases that intersect between employment law and disability matters and can give you full-service representation.

What Qualifies as Wrongful Dismissal

Being terminated means you are looking down the long road of having to find another job in a challenging economy. If your employer fails to give you notice or pay an adequate severance, you may have a wrongful dismissal claim. Wrongful Dismissal occurs when your employment has ended but you have not received an adequate compensation from your employer.

Generally wrongful dismissal claims fall into three categories:

  • Termination without cause – This occurs when an employer ends an employee’s job but fails to provide fair compensation.
  • Unjust termination for cause – In this case, the employer dismisses an employee alleging misconduct but does not offer any severance or compensation.
  • Constructive dismissal – This happens when an employer significantly changes the terms of employment, such as cutting pay or creating intolerable working conditions, forcing the employee to leave.

In either case, your employer will want you to sign away your rights, but don’t sign anything without talking to one of our lawyers.

Preserving Clients’ Rights In Wrongful Dismissal Claims

At Walter Law Group, our experienced lawyers will discuss the details of your situation with you to determine if you have a wrongful dismissal claim. We Ensure That You Are Properly Compensated.

Did Your Employer:

  • Terminate you without giving you a reasonable notice?
  • Fail to pay you proper compensation?
  • Terminate you while you were on maternity leave?
  • Constructively dismiss you?
  • Terminate you while you were on disability leave?
  • Terminate you after you came back from disability leave
  • Fail to recall you from a lay-off?

If your answer is yes to any of the above questions, you may have a claim for wrongful dismissal, and we will vigorously pursue a claim for fair compensation.

How Our Toronto Wrongful Dismissal Lawyers Can Help

If you’ve been dismissed from your job in Toronto, our skilled wrongful dismissal lawyers can help ensure you receive the full severance pay you’re entitled to under the law. In Ontario, severance pay can amount to as much as 24 months’ salary, depending on various factors – it’s not up to your employer to decide the amount.

Wrongful dismissal happens when an employer fires you without cause or improperly claims “just cause” and fails to provide adequate severance. Many people mistakenly believe wrongful dismissal means being fired for an unfair reason, but that’s not necessarily true. Employers can terminate employment for almost any lawful reason, as long as they pay the proper severance.

At Walter Law Group, our experienced employment lawyers have successfully helped thousands of Canadians secure the severance they deserve. If you’ve been terminated, chances are you’re owed more than what your employer initially offers, potentially amounting to months of extra pay.

Severance packages must account for several factors, such as:

  • Your age
  • The type of job you held
  • The length of your employment
  • Any bonuses or benefits you were entitled to
  • The terms outlined in your employment contract

We’ll review the circumstances of your case to determine what you’re truly owed and make sure there are no gaps between your employer’s offer and what you’re legally entitled to.
