What Does an Employment Lawyer Do?
Helping Employees Stand Up for Their Rights
Most people never expect to need a lawyer for work-related issues—until something happens. Maybe you were fired suddenly. Maybe your employer pressured you into resigning. Maybe you’re dealing with harassment that’s making your job unbearable.
If something feels unfair, it probably is. But the reality is, many workers don’t realize they have legal rights—and employers know it.
An experienced employment lawyer can help you:
✅ Challenge wrongful dismissal – If you were fired unfairly, you may be entitled to compensation, severance, or damages.
✅ Fight constructive dismissal – If your employer made your job impossible to continue, they may owe you severance.
✅ Negotiate a better severance package – Don’t sign anything before speaking to a lawyer. You may be entitled to more.
✅ Stand up against workplace harassment – No one should feel unsafe or discriminated against at work.
Think you might have a case? Let’s talk. The sooner you get legal advice, the stronger your position.

Were You Fired Unfairly? Know Your Rights.
If you were fired without a valid reason, your employer might owe you more than you think. Wrongful dismissal happens when an employer terminates you without proper severance, notice, or legal justification.
Many employees don’t challenge their termination because they assume they have no choice. Employers count on that—which is why they often offer less severance than they should.
Do Any of These Sound Familiar?
✔ You were fired without proper notice or severance pay.
✔ Your employer broke your contract when terminating you.
✔ You were let go for unfair reasons (e.g., discrimination, retaliation).
Case Example:
A Vancouver employee was dismissed after 6 years of service and offered a severance package far below BC employment standards. After working with Tim Louis, they secured double the severance and additional compensation.
What About “Constructive Dismissal”?
If You Were Forced to Quit, You Might Still Have a Case.
Not all terminations happen with a pink slip. If your employer made your job intolerable—whether through a toxic work environment, pay cuts, or unreasonable changes—you may have experienced constructive dismissal.
Many employees walk away from jobs they don’t have to. Before making any decisions, get legal advice.

FAQs – Employment Lawyer Vancouver
To help you understand your rights in the workplace, we’ve answered some of the most frequently asked questions about employment law in British Columbia. Whether you’re facing wrongful dismissal, negotiating a severance package, or dealing with harassment on the job, these answers are designed to give you clear, accessible information so you can take confident next steps.
Wrongful dismissal happens when an employer fires an employee without proper notice, severance pay, or a valid legal reason. If your termination violates BC employment laws or your contract, you may have a case for compensation.
Severance pay in British Columbia depends on factors like your job role, salary, years of service, and difficulty finding a new job. Many employers offer less than what the law requires—an employment lawyer can help ensure you receive fair severance.
Yes, you can take legal action if your employer fired you unfairly. A wrongful dismissal lawyer can help negotiate a severance package or take your case to court if necessary.
Constructive dismissal occurs when an employer makes drastic changes to your job—such as cutting your pay, changing work conditions, or creating a toxic workplace—forcing you to quit. If this happens, you may be entitled to severance or compensation.
If you were dismissed without cause, your employer must provide either reasonable notice or severance pay. Speak with an employment lawyer before signing any severance offer to ensure you’re getting what you’re legally entitled to.
BC employment laws protect workers from harassment, bullying, and discrimination. If your employer fails to address the issue, you may have grounds for a workplace harassment claim. An employment lawyer can help you take action.
If you’ve been discriminated against at work due to race, gender, disability, or another protected ground, you can file a complaint with the BC Human Rights Tribunal. A lawyer can assist in building a strong case.
Many employers offer lower severance than what you deserve. A lawyer can review your severance offer and negotiate for a better settlement.
If you’ve been fired, forced to resign, harassed, or treated unfairly at work, it’s best to consult an employment lawyer as soon as possible. Acting quickly strengthens your case and ensures you receive fair compensation.
Most employment lawyers in Vancouver offer free consultations and may work on a contingency or flat-fee basis. Tim Louis & Company provides clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
