About Sarah Low

Sarah Low is an employment lawyer at McKenzie Lake Lawyers in London, Ontario. Most of the people Low advises are employers, though employees come to the practice too, and that experience on both sides of the table shapes the advice. The work runs from the first hire and the employment contract through to discipline, human rights accommodation, terminations and wrongful dismissal claims.

Called to the Ontario bar in 2007, Low spent five years at another large London firm, where the practice took in employment matters, aboriginal law and class actions. The move to McKenzie Lake came in January 2012. For several years after arriving, Low kept acting for survivors of abuse at Indian Residential Schools, and apart from that work the practice has been devoted entirely to employment law.

Employers bring Low in to spot workplace legal problems and fix them, and the aim is always advice that's practical and doesn't cost more than it should, delivered with a good sense of humour. Low's past work with the London Humane Society and Leads Employment Services built lasting ties in the community. Away from the office, Low loves to travel, cook and tend a vegetable garden, and cheers on family at hockey and lacrosse games.
