In this employment law case, we represented a 14.5 year National Account Manager, Business Development in a claim for wrongful dismissal damages following his termination without notice. The court awarded wrongful dismissal damages based on a 14 month notice period, without further deduction for mitigation opportunities, although the trial occurred only 4 months after dismissal. The plaintiff was compensated for monies expended to obtain replacement long term disability coverage, as well as other coverages for life insurance, basic and extended medical – in addition to non-salary financial income compenents such as RRSP matching.
