We will conduct due diligence to assess all legal and financial implications of the transaction. Our team can then structure and negotiate the deal terms to maximize value and mitigate risks.

Employment Law Advisory for Businesses

Employment laws in Ontario and at the federal level are complex and change frequently. GLG LLP can help you keep your workplace policies and practices compliant. Our corporate lawyers can draft enforceable employment contracts to suit a wide range of needs, from freelance and union contracts to executive contracts and confidentiality clauses.

We can also advise you on staying compliant with legislation involving matters like hiring, terminations, workplace discrimination, and whistleblowing.

If an employee launches a claim against your company, we can defend you through mediation or litigation as necessary. Whether you need day-to-day counselling or representation for a major case, we can safeguard your business from employment risks.
