Goldblatt Partners LLP

Legal ServicesOntario, Canada51-200 Employees

For 50 years, Goldblatt Partners LLP has helped blaze a trail for working people and trade unions in Ontario.  We represent unions and workers in all labour and and employment law matters, including grievance and interest arbitration, labour board proceedings, human rights claims, workplace health & safety applications, disability insurance claims, pay equity complaints and pension and benefits disputes.

To complement our trade union practice, we established a civil litigation group which represents individuals, trade unions and professional organizations in all types of civil disputes, including wrongful dismissal actions. Our civil litigators also act for professionals, including teachers, lawyers and others, who are accused of misconduct or negligence.

Our criminal law practitioners also complement our trade union practice. They advise trade unions and their members in police and child welfare investigations, and in relation to criminal charges connected to the workplace or to picket line disputes. Our criminal lawyers also act in national security certificate cases, and quasi-criminal law matters such as proceeds of crime litigation.

The lawyers in our Aboriginal law group provide creative, cutting-edge representation for Aboriginal individuals, communities, institutions and governments to help them advance and protect their rights and interests.

Finally, we are well-known for our appellate advocacy, including Charter of Rights and public interest litigation.  We have been involved in many of the leading Charter cases in the labour and employment law field, advocating for employees’ freedom of association and expression. We have also been at the forefront of many equality rights cases, including virtually every Supreme Court of Canada case involving the rights of the LGBTQ community.

In all cases, we strive to obtain the best possible results for our clients through strategic planning, skillful negotiation and advocacy, and forceful litigation.
