3 characteristics to look for in a human rights law firm
When searching online for a “law firm close to me in Mississauga, Ontario,” we recognize that you have many such firms to choose from in the GTA. At the same time, convenience is a helpful factor. Of course, it should not be the defining factor when searching for a quality lawyer to represent you. Not all law firms can take on certain cases, particularly if you need representation for human rights matters. GAB Law Firm is a trusted neighborhood practice with the skills, experience, and a proven record of success in initiating and defending legal actions, as reflected in the following three characteristics.
1. We have the right practice area expertise for your case.
While there may be 57,000 lawyers in the province, these professionals vary in their practice areas, much like medical specializations. This is the area of focus that a lawyer dedicates their career to, and only a fraction of the thousands of professionals mentioned here have the appropriate expertise to successfully navigate the unique needs and processes associated with human rights and discrimination cases. Our lawyers, Gary A. Bennett and Sharon Yeboah, have represented the likes of police officers from across the province. These members of law enforcement were faced with the difficult decision to pursue legal action against co-workers or superiors following infringements of their human rights, including intimidating, hostile, discriminatory, or even life-threatening behaviors. That’s why working with a firm with direct, relevant experience and a history of success in similar emotionally charged and sensitive cases is essential.
2. We have the right perspective for your case.
Our lawyers do not limit themselves to representing only one type of client. Their perspective is broad and balanced because they represent employers and employees. Many law firms specializing in labor law only represent employers, corporations, or organizations. At GAB Law Firm, Gary and Sharon have represented both sides. This dual experience gives us insight into the opposing party’s perspective, which helps us build strong legal strategies and anticipate the next steps of the other side. Over time, this comprehensive approach has proven successful because we can see the big picture, not just isolated details.
3. We have the right qualifications and demonstrated successes.
It is one thing to have the right practice area and perspective; it is quite another to have a long history of successfully applying those skills to resolve cases favorably on behalf of our clients. One example of our achievements is that Gary A. Bennett is a 2023 ThreeBestRated® award-winning employment lawyer in Mississauga. True to its name, this program recognizes the top three professionals in specific specialties and industries within their local communities. Gary underwent a rigorous 50-point inspection to earn this recognition, which assessed criteria such as client reviews, responsiveness, and accessibility. In addition to this recognition, Gary also serves as a member of the Law Society’s Coach and Advisor Network, demonstrating his commitment to mentoring and excellence within the legal profession.
