About Turner, A Human Resources Law Firm

Turner, A Human Resources Law Firm is a management side employment and labour law firm with an office on Islington Avenue in the Islington City Centre West area of Toronto. The firm's own site describes 25 years of experience in Canadian employment and labour law, and its focus is advising and representing employers rather than individual employees. Principal lawyer David Turner is a graduate of Queen's Law School and a member of the Law Society of Ontario, the Canadian Bar Association, and the Ontario Bar Association. David Turner also lectures for the Law Society of Ontario and is a frequent speaker at professional meetings on employment law topics.

Beyond advisory and litigation work, the firm runs customized in-house training seminars for employer clients on subjects like performance management, legislative compliance, and workplace investigations. It also conducts workplace investigations directly, acting as a third party investigator for a client or advising on a company's own investigation process. An associate lawyer at the firm was called to the Ontario Bar in 2016 after working at a small Toronto litigation firm, and the firm's law clerk has been with Turner HR Law since 2009. The firm keeps a legal updates page tracking employment case law and legislative changes, including recent posts on Ontario's Employment Standards Act, its Occupational Health and Safety Act, and federal minimum wage increases.
