Employment Termination

Legal Support For Employers on Employment Termination

As an employer, you have the right to dismiss an employee with or without cause. What causes legal problems for employers is that they did not provide proper notice, or the compensation amount offered does not meet legislative guidelines.

At Blackburn Lawyers, our employment litigation lawyers have extensive experience helping employers draft and execute termination clauses in contracts. Based in Richmond Hill, Ontario, we also represent employers defending their actions against dismissed employees.

Enforcing Contract Provisions That Protect Your Business

Businesses may want to protect their best practices, intellectual properties, or sensitive business information when an employee is dismissed.

At Blackburn Lawyers, we help business owners draft these contract provisions regarding:

  • Compliance with current laws
  • Infringement of individual rights or freedoms
  • Providing reasonable notice

We also advise on appropriate compensation, and what to do when an employee brings an action requesting higher amounts of severance.
