About Millard & Company

Clients rate this firm highly on Google.

Millard & Company is a small law firm in downtown Toronto that focuses on workplace law. It's registered as Millard Legal Professional Corporation and takes on employment law, human rights and equality law, and professional complaints and discipline matters. On the employment side, the firm works with both employees and employers in non-unionized workplaces, handling wrongful dismissal, severance negotiations, and employment contracts. Its human rights and equality practice covers discrimination and harassment claims that can end up before human rights tribunals, provincial courts, and federal forums. The firm also represents lawyers, nurses, doctors, and other regulated professionals who are facing complaints or discipline that could put their license to practice at risk.

The firm has a longer history than its current one lawyer roster suggests. A 2015 announcement described partners Beth Symes, Carol Street, and Ben Millard working together at what was then a larger litigation practice. Today, Ben Millard is the firm's lawyer, having earned a law degree from the University of Ottawa, graduating magna cum laude, and having been a partner at the firm since 2011. Millard's litigation practice covers employment and human rights matters, with appearances before every level of court and tribunal in Ontario, and federally, including the Supreme Court of Canada.
