Biography
Pamela was called to the Ontario Bar in 2006 and has over 10 years of practice experience specializing in resolving and litigating employment law issues facing non-unionized workplaces for both employee and employer clients. She effectively negotiates employment and non-competition agreements, and advises and advocates regarding issues related to: severance packages, wrongful dismissals, constructive dismissals, workplace policies, employment standards, human rights compliance and claims, personal and psychological harassment and disabled employees. Though she is practical and resolution orientated, where a fair resolution is not available, Pamela is a formidable advocate with a proven track record of litigating difficult wrongful dismissal cases both at the trial level and appeal level for both employees and employers. Pamela has appeared before the Ontario Small Claims Court, Superior Court of Justice, Divisional Court, Court of Appeal and the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario. She also handles Ministry of Labour complaints, Canadian Labour Board unjust dismissal claims, and Canadian Human Rights Commission applications. Pamela also brings to her practice experience in corporate tax law, commercial law, intellectual property law and information technology law.
