Sheilagh advocates for clients on issues arising at the point of hire, in the course of employment or on termination.
Her main area of practice is employment and labour law, and her experience is with the wide array of issues related to employment relationships, the workplace and members of regulated professions, such as wrongful dismissal, contract negotiation, grievance arbitration, labour disputes, human rights claims, professional disciplineregulation issues, and workplace harassment and other investigations. Sheilagh has extensive experience in education law and in the specialized field of disability insurance benefits—working with individuals and trade unions to pursue denied benefits claims. Sheilagh is also available to conduct workplace investigations. In the course of her more than 20 years of experience, Sheilagh has advised regularly on workplace discrimination, harassment and violence policies, as well as issues related to persons asserting or accused of harassment. Because of this extensive experience, Sheilagh has the in-depth knowledge and insight necessary to conduct efficient and responsible investigations. A frequent writer and speaker, Sheilagh has published, trained, workshopped and presented on issues concerning civil litigation skills, workplace accommodation, discrimination in employment, equality rights, education law and collective bargaining.
