Looking For Legal Advice?

According to the Labour Standards, a Quebec employer can terminate an employee at any time with just cause if the employer complies with employment standards. However, if you are wrongfully dismissed (or terminated) from your job without just cause and proper notice, the Quebec legal system has provided solutions for such situations.

Most employees are unaware of what just cause, and proper notice are when it comes to termination from employment and may not be aware that a wrongful dismissal is something they can be compensated for.

If you think that you have been illegally dismissed from your job, you owe it to yourself to determine if you have a right to compensation for your loss of employment. And, even though, your dismissing employer may offer you an exit package, you need to get expert opinion as to whether or not the amount of money offered is sufficient.

Me Descollines can assist you with the pursuit of any wrongful dismissal claim you may have. We’ll help you determine the facts pertaining to your dismissal, assess the strengths and weaknesses of your wrongful dismissal claim, and determine if you actually have a case that is worthy of litigation.
