Our Services In Employment
Teryl Scott’s team of lawyers in Halifax, and serving all of the province, are here for all your employment law needs. Similar to our family law mediation programs, we have worked to develop mediation programs for areas of employment law to save you time and money.
We also provide sophisticated investigation services for employers on the toughest issues such as human rights complaints.
We will work with your schedule, typically holding meetings via video conference, telephone, or in-person if you prefer. Our lawyers cover the following areas of employment law:
We work with you when your job has been terminated without just cause, severance or working notice.
We work with your organization when arms-length investigations are needed for discrimination, harassment and other issues.
We work with your organization to mediate conflicts and we help the parties come to a fair resolution.
When mediation does not end in a mutual agreement, we can adjudicate and create a binding decisions.
Our Testimonials
Lisa helped advise me during a recent employment law dispute. It was time sensitive and she quickly navigated the various clauses in my contract, the legal precedent, and provides suggestions of how to proceed. She also took into account what I personally wanted out of a possible resolution, which I appreciated.
Couldn't be happier with the experience. I absolutely would go to her for council in future employment matters. I recommend her for any employee with an employment law issue.
Lisa was fantastic to deal with, and helped our organization with not only what we originally sought assistance with, but also with a few other items we weren't even aware of. She was very in tune with our needs, and a pleasure to do business with. Would recommend to others.
Teryl Scott was very helpful for the board of my non-profit getting our employee contracts done right.
