Focused counsel with a big-picture lens: whether assisting on clients’ day-to-day pensions and employment matters, critical scenarios, or transactions, our advice is sensitive to the situation at hand while satisfying strategic and business objectives.
Our Pensions and Employment team offers integrated, business-minded counsel on pensions, executive compensation, employee benefits and employment matters and disputes. Our breadth of knowledge allows us to balance the needs of the organization, employees and other stakeholders, and find win-win solutions whenever possible.
We know how to defuse sensitive and complex workplace issues in a way that minimizes risk. Our clients span sectors and industries. We collaborate closely with accountants, actuaries and other professionals, as well as with government and regulatory representatives, to coordinate the resolution of our clients’ issues, particularly at times of transition.
We are also deal facilitators, giving practical counsel on pension, employment and executive compensation aspects of complex transactions—and we offer a one-team solution to our clients on both sides of the Canada-U.S. border.
Our team maintains broad experience in the area of pension fund investment, advising Canada’s largest pension funds on structuring significant acquisitions around the world in compliance with the investment restrictions in their governing legislation.
