| Description | My practice is in employment, human rights and labour law. I have assisted my clients throughout the course of the employment relationship: contract negotiation, workplace investigations, bullying andharassment, and dismissal . I have a particular passion for cases involving human rights violations or breaches of privacy. I also represent unions in labour arbitrations, access to information requests, labour relations board and all other proceedings.Prior to joining HHBG, I did a diverse range of legal work for non-profits, from grassroots advocacy and community organizing in Montreal to drafting legal arguments on refugee rights for the Israeli High Court. I was a student clerk at the Quebec Court of Appeal, and an articling student for the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario. I bring these experiences with frontline legal advocacy, top-flight legal research and intimate knowledge of courts and administrative tribunals to my practice for workers and unions.I graduated with multiple awards from McGill’s bilingual faculty of law and was valedictorian for my undergraduate class at Concordia University. I believe strongly in giving back to my community through pro bono work. At the BC Civil Liberties Association, I volunteered on challenges to electronic surveillance and religious discrimination. I was the youngest member on the board of the Montreal Holocaust Museum Centre, and was a director for McGill’s Human Rights Working Group.When away from my busy practice, I like to spend time with my wife and newborn son – preferably near a large body of water. My grandfather, whose name I carry on, was a labor activist in Brooklyn’s garment sector in the mid-20th century, and I’m proud to be continuing the family tradition. |
My experience with Kelly Slade-Kerr far exceeded any expectations I could have had prior to contacting her. She came highly recommended from a trusted friend and I now will always highly recommend her services. Prior to consulting with Kelly, I had never had any issues with an employer and frankly my desire was to not go the legal route. Let me encourage you if you are wondering whether or not to contact her office. Just do it! She is professional, efficient and fair. The consult fee may seem high, especially if your income may be in jeopardy, but surely being treated fairly and receiving solid advice that you can trust while in the midst of a difficult predicament is more than worth it. You can trust that Kelly will go to bat for you and she will be honest from the beginning and all the way through to the end.
Not one to write reviews but felt the need to thank Rosie at HHBG (Surrey location) for not only making me feel so comfortable in our consultation but more importantly helping me write an extremely useful letter advising my employer of what a "fair and reasonable" termination offer truly is! Best money I've ever spent without a doubt and would definitely recommend HHBG to others in future. Thanks again Rosie!
Rosie was a great guide through the termination paperwork, making me feel at ease through the process and helped me gain a positive outcome quickly. I would recommend HHBG Laywers and Rosie to anyone requiring review of employment documentation.
Was given very practical and sound advice regarding my employment situation. Next time I will get them to review my employment agreement before I sign it and not when I have an issue. I will definitely seek Nicole's advice again.
I worked with Anita and am very pleased with the outcome. Anita explained different scenarios thoroughly and was very professional in dealings with my past employer. I would highly recommend this firm.
