Areas of Practice

Workplace

Marcus McCann Law represents both workers and employers in wrongful dismissal cases. We also assist with a variety of other sensitive workplace issues, in unionized and non-union environments: termination of employment, disability accommodation, return to work, grievance arbitration and collective bargaining, and workplace harassment. For employers, we draft and edit documents using plain language, including workplace policies, manuals, and employment contracts.

Executive Terminations

Marcus McCann Law represents senior leaders, executives, and c-suite employees in all types of employment matters, from reviewing employment contracts to negotiating with employers post-termination. We understand the intricacies of variable compensation, stock options, incentive pay, bonuses, non-competes, assignment of rights, executive releases and indemnities, and er will work with you to make sure you get what you are owed.

Human Rights

We have represented many clients before human rights tribunals, at every stage in the process, including on judicial review. We are sensitive to the unique nature of human rights violations, and always works to find a fair resolution of issues between the parties if possible.

Not for Profits

Marcus McCann Law guides non-profits, charities, coops, and social enterprises through difficult processes, such as by-law reviews, drafting workplace policies, workplace harassment complaints, and hiring and terminating employees. We know that not-for-profit clients often need specialized legal support as they perform their vital work.

Civil Litigation

We have appeared before all levels of court in Ontario, as well as Federal Court and the Supreme Court of Canada, and represented clients before the Ontario Human Rights Tribunal, the Canadian Human Rights Commission, and at other administrative hearings. We regularly represent clients in negotiations and mediations, inside and out of formal court proceedings.
