Shell Lawyers strives to give substance to your workplace rights. We have used a variety of innovative and creative strategies to pressure employers to meet their legal obligations. We tailor our services to your particular needs with the aim to using the law in a manner that meets your needs, interests and goals.
The Consultation
In most cases, our first significant point of contact with you comes during an initial consultation. You will meet with one of our lawyers in our Toronto office **or** by teleconference, whichever you prefer. The consultation provides you with an opportunity to tell us your story and the reasons you are seeking the advice of a legal advisor. We will work to explain how the law applies to your particular situation and assess the legal tools that can be used to meet your needs, interests and goals. At the conclusion of the consultation, we aim to provide you with an understanding of the law as applied to your situation and a legal strategy that gives force to your legal rights.
In most cases, consultations at Shell Lawyers are $250. Call **or** email us at inquiry@shelllawyers.ca to arrange a consultation with Shell Lawyers.
Pursuing your legal plan
Following an initial consultation, you may wish to retain our services to help implement your legal strategy. We have decades of experience in resolving disputes, whether it be in making an initial demand on your employer, negotiating on your behalf **or** taking your case through to a trial.
Over 90% of all legal disputes settle without the need to conduct a trial
Giving substance to your legal rights may require you to launch a law suit against your former employer. At Shell Lawyers, we have the skills and expertise necessary to take your case to trial. However, in most cases, we work hardest to make sure you don’t have to go that far. The vast majority of legal cases settle prior to trial. Much effort is spent on attempts to reason with your employer to assist them to offer you a reasonable settlement that meets your interests. At Shell Lawyers, we have years of negotiation experience which we use to get our clients fair, reasonable, and just settlements from their employers.
