Employment Law
Lawyers, Burlington

After being wrongfully dismissed from my last position, I did not hesitate to contact KCY at LAW to represent my interests. Throughout the litigation Kathy took the care to closely review the details of my case, educate me on employment law, and explain my options at every stage. Ms. Chittley-Young used a concentrated proactive approach in an effort to expedite proceedings and minimize legal costs.

It takes courage to keep going after a brain injury. I relied on Kathy Chittley-Young for good advice and as a result, KCY at LAW successfully achieved a settlement for me that alleviated my financial pressures allowing me to focus on rebuilding my life.

Thank you very much for getting me through a very stressful time. There were a number of times I was willing to give up and throw in the towel but your dedication and willingness to stand up for me was a great sense of strength for me. The process did fully overwhelm me. I was stymied that anyone would have to go through this ordeal. You certainly made things a lot easier to deal with.

Thank you for your excellent negotiations and very generous time to reach a severance settlement for me. I truly appreciate your extra efforts on my behalf! You and your law team are outstanding professionals. I learned a great deal from you during this process. I’m very pleased with the positive outcome!

When I was unexpectedly terminated, I had no idea where to turn.  My employer told me the reason was ‘a business decision’ and cited ’restructuring‘.  They told me I had been an exemplary employee.  Sound familiar?  So I went and saw Kathy at KCY.  She walked me through the contract I had signed with my employer and explained how it related to both ESA and the common law.  She did a quick check of previous similar legal cases and advised that the severance I had been offered was far less than what I might reasonably expect to be awarded if I was to proceed with legal action.  Remember, most employers will typically offer you the bare minimum as set out in ESA.  I proceeded with my case and Kathy and her team worked to obtain a substantially larger settlement for me.  I can’t say enough about their professionalism and am very happy to recommend the services of KCY at Law to anyone in a similar situation.
