On May 1, 2008, the BC Court of Appeal allowed E-Care’s appeal from the decision of Judge Wedge, and decided that the British Columbia Supreme Court does not have jurisdiction to deal with overtime claims in a civil action, if the overtime claim is solely based on statutory rights contained in the BC Employment Standards Act.

I was fortunate to be referred to Tevlin Gleadle Curtis upon the surprising termination of my employment. During a very stressful time, their systematic and balanced approach provided the clarity and options essential to move a personally demanding process forward. Their effort and quick reaction times resulted in a court appearance four months post dismissal and a favourable judgement one an half months later.
