Yes. Employers in Brampton can terminate employees without cause, but they must provide reasonable notice or severance pay. What’s reasonable depends on your age, position, years of service, salary and how long it might take you to find comparable work.
Many employers offer packages that only meet statutory minimums. Your entitlements under common law could be much greater. Our wrongful dismissal lawyers can calculate your true entitlement and work towards holding your former employer to their responsibilities.

Often it does. Most termination letters contain a release that blocks future claims once signed. Employers sometimes frame this as routine or urgent, but signing too quickly can cost you thousands.
If you’ve been let go in Brampton, take time to have your severance reviewed first. We’ll go through it in plain language and help you decide whether to accept, renegotiate, or reject it.

You have up to two years from the date of termination to start a claim. The earlier you act, the easier it is to gather information and negotiate from a position of confidence.
Acting quickly also signals that you take your rights seriously, which can influence how your employer approaches the situation. Seeking early legal input lets you act while the facts are still clear and the opportunity for resolution is open.

If you were dismissed without fair notice or adequate severance, you may be entitled to significantly more than what was offered. Compensation can include salary for the full notice period, benefits, bonuses, commissions, and vacation pay. A fair settlement should reflect your position, salary, and tenure, among other factors. Our lawyers will calculate that number and pursue it on your behalf.
