About Guy Hunter Law

Guy Hunter, Barrister and Solicitor, runs a solo employment and family law practice from a second floor office on Bloor Street West in Toronto. On the employment side, the firm takes on wrongful dismissal, severance package review, human rights complaints, and workplace harassment claims. The family law side covers custody and parenting time, property division, spousal and child support, divorce, and property claims between common law spouses, including resulting trust matters.

Guy Hunter holds an LL.M. in Securities Law, which adds some background in stock option and financial services matters for clients dealing with dismissal. New clients get a free half hour consultation, and Guy Hunter can advise clients in English, French, or Spanish. It's a solo practice, so clients work directly with Guy Hunter rather than being passed to associates.
