The lawyers in our Indigenous practice group have long experience with, and a deep understanding of, the issues and challenges which are unique to Indigenous employers.  We know that the most effective solutions begin with strong and lasting relationships with our clients.

Our lawyers have extensive experience working with Indigenous governments and organizations — including band councils and self-governing Indigenous communities, Indigenous schools, health care and social service agencies, and Indigenous-owned businesses and entities throughout Canada — to help them achieve their strategic and organizational objectives while minimizing legal risk arising from workplace issues.

• Effective Human Resources Management: Prevention and Proactive Measures
• Chief and Council Governance Issues
• Employment-Related Provisions in Impact Benefit Agreements
• Jurisdiction over Employment Relationships
