Employment Lawyers representing Employees

At Taylor Janis, we understand that termination or dismissal from your job, no matter what the circumstances, is one of the most stressful and difficult times of your life. It is during this time that you need a lawyer that you can trust; one who understands all aspects of the employment relationship.

We are a leading BC employment and labour law firm that specializes in helping workers in BC, including:

  • Employees whose employment has been terminated with or without just cause

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU

Early retirement warning: Be wary of so-called ‘early retirement’ packages, as many employers offer these in an attempt to avoid their full severance obligations to their employees. More information

More Information

B.C. employment standards state that:

Employers can end employment by:

Giving an employee written notice and/or payment based on how long they’ve been working

OR

Firing an employee for just cause – if an employer has just cause, they don’t have to give notice or pay

When an employer terminates in the first way, the payment is termed “severance pay”.

More Information

Many employers require employees to sign non-solicitation and non-competition clauses (otherwise known as restrictive covenants) either before starting work or sometime thereafter.

    Professional and Knowledgeable

    I was in Europe with a nine hour time difference when I lost my job here in Vancouver. This law firm was recommended to me by a friend of mine who is a family lawyer. I had the pleasure of working with Alfonso Chen. Not only was he professional and knowledgeable in answering all my questions and concerns but he was accommodating to the time difference and truly empathetic as I was dealing with the loss of a job away from my support network. I had a great experience working with him and would recommend him to anyone looking for an employment lawyer in Vancouver, BC.”
