Our Foundation & Investigation Philosophy
Our significant expertise in workplace investigations—including in respect of allegations of toxicity, harassment, sexual harassment, and discrimination on the basis of disability—has been built from our strong foundation in substantive employment and human rights law.
We maintain strict adherence to procedural fairness, a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive approach, and deep respect for all parties involved throughout the entire investigation process.
