About Persaud Employment Law

Persaud Employment Law is a Toronto workplace investigations and employment law practice led by Dorian Persaud, who worked as a policy analyst in the public sector and later in the Legal Department of the Ontario Ministry of Labour before moving into private practice. The firm's site describes over 15 years of experience working with government organizations and public sector employers, and it's now retained by provincial and municipal HR departments, universities, colleges, and school boards, alongside private sector organizations, for investigations that can involve multiple respondents. It doesn't represent employees, so there's no conflict of interest when it's brought in to investigate a workplace complaint, and it offers its services in both English and French.

The firm conducts internal investigations and manages external ones into complaints such as harassment, discrimination, and bullying, working under a fixed fee model that includes a promise to finish an investigation within 60 days or the work is free. Beyond investigations, it runs HR training through full day and multi day workshops, live webinars, and recorded sessions on topics like conducting fair investigations and choosing an external investigator. It also advises First Nation Band Councils and affiliated organizations on employment matters such as unjust dismissal, disability accommodation, and harassment, and it trains Band Managers and staff on the legislation that applies to their workplaces.
