About These Employment Law Tools

Losing a job — or being mistreated in one — comes with a clock attached. Severance offers carry signing deadlines, human rights complaints have one-year windows, and wage claims expire faster than most people expect. These free wizards work through your specific situation and produce a personalized report: the legal framework that applies, your deadlines, the documents to gather, and the questions that make an employment lawyer consultation count.

Start with the wizard that matches your situation: the wrongful dismissal and severance review tools if you've been let go, the constructive dismissal wizard if your job changed under you, the harassment and discrimination assessments for workplace mistreatment, and the unpaid wages tool for money you earned but never received. Employees in both Canada and the United States are covered — the wizards adjust for the fundamental differences between the two regimes, including at-will employment, ESA minimums, and common-law notice. Everything runs in your browser, free and confidential.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I be fired without cause?
In Canada, yes — but your employer owes you notice or severance pay, often far more than statutory minimums. In most US states, at-will employment allows no-cause termination without severance, but firings that are retaliatory, discriminatory, or breach a contract are still illegal. The rights checker wizard maps your regime.
Should I sign my severance package right away?
No. Deadlines on severance offers are negotiating tactics, not legal limits — and signing a release permanently ends your claims. Most employment lawyers review packages for a flat fee and routinely improve first offers. Run the severance review wizard before you sign anything.
How long do I have to make an employment claim?
Less time than you think. Human rights complaints are commonly capped at one year (HRTO) or 180–300 days (EEOC). Wage claims often reach back only 2 years (Ontario ESA) or 2–3 years (FLSA). Court claims typically allow 2–6 years. Every wizard flags the deadlines your answers trigger.
Are these wizards confidential?
Yes. Your answers are processed entirely in your browser and never sent to a server. For anything sensitive, the reports are designed to be taken into a privileged lawyer consultation.
Do these cover both Canada and the US?
Yes — every wizard asks your jurisdiction first and adjusts for the deep differences between Canadian notice-based employment law and US at-will employment, including state and provincial variations.

These tools provide general legal information only — not legal advice. They do not predict outcomes and do not replace consultation with a qualified lawyer. If you have an urgent legal matter, contact a lawyer immediately.
