I have known Stuart for many years and when it came time to redo our employment agreements, he was my only call.  He changed our simple 2 page contract to a detailed agreement that protects us and our employees and removed any doubt about our responsibilities under the current laws. We update the agreement every year to make sure it meets the current legislation and best practices.  From Day 1, we had a clause to allow temporary layoffs. I had no clue at the time why Stuart included it in the agreement, but based on the current COVID-19 crisis, I'm glad that he proactively protected us by thinking ahead.

Having over 30 years of experience in representing Executive Employees and Companies, large and small, and having known Stuart Rudner since the late 90’s, I would highly recommend Stuart to mediate your Employment Law cases. Stuart is an authority in Employment Law and also very personable. He is able to combine his extensive knowledge of Employment Law and his interpersonal skills to resolve cases. He clearly prides himself on his ability to help parties resolve their disputes, and he works tirelessly to do so. Stuart does everything he can to achieve a positive result. I look forward to having Stuart mediate my future Employment Law cases.

Stuart worked very closely with me at End to End Networks, helping the company to understand its legal obligations and how to best protect our interests. He helped us adopt a strategic but fair approach to HR and HR law.

Based on my experience working with Stuart over an extended period of time, I can honestly say that Stuart is a highly professional and knowledgeable lawyer. He has the ability to put his clients at ease by explaining the “vocabulary” of law in a way that allows them to more easily understand the meaning of contracts, cases and decisions. Stuart shows a high degree of empathy towards his clients. He is very active in both the legal profession and on social media, and I trust his advice completely on legal matters. Stuart has assembled a legal team who support him and share his values.

I met Stuart at TechConnex when he kindly agreed to run a session for my HR Peer Group on employment contracts. Stuart is a firm believer in education and training, and his session was extremely well-received by the peer group.

I highly recommend Rudner Law to anyone who needs legal advice and assistance.

I have worked with Stuart Rudner over the last few years. Stuart is a leader in his field and I look to him to provide the strategic guidance and advice our company needs when it comes to employment law matters. He has done exceptionally, and I would highly recommend Stuart and his team to anyone needing employment law advice.

We have relied on Stuart Rudner to advise on our more complex employment matters for the last 15 years. His timely strategic advice is current, relevant and balanced leading us in the right direction. We strive to treat our Team fairly; Stuart understands this goal and works with us to achieve it.

Workplace Safety Group has a long-standing, professional relationship with Stuart Rudner, of Rudner Law, both as its’ corporate counsel, and as a referral resource for clients dealing with issues around workplace harassment and violence, unlawful dismissal and other employment issues. All clients WSG has referred have had successful outcomes due to Mr. Rudner’s knowledge, skill and dedicated attention to the case at hand.

On a personal note, Stuart is approachable, values-centred and an exceptional communicator, stemming from his passion to help his clients. Where some might hesitate to contact a lawyer, I would recommend Rudner Law as a first stop when dealing with employment matters. WSG is fortunate to have Rudner Law on our team as legal counsel, and to the benefit of our clients.

We have been working with Stuart Rudner and his team for years. This long-standing relationship is due to the fact that Stuart and his team are extremely personable and professional. They are quick to respond and always ensure you understand the options available to you. They pride themselves on ensuring their clients’ satisfaction and understanding of what the law requires.

Stuart Rudner continues to stand out as a thought leader on any employment law topic. Since becoming an owner manager himself of a boutique employment law firm, Stuart seems to have an even deeper understanding of what it is like to be an employer and has in my opinion become expert in advising owner-managers through issues that may arise in the employer-employee relationship.

I have worked with Stuart, and he has assisted me in providing strategic advice to my clients.

On top of being a leading Employment Lawyer, writer, HR professor and business owner, Stuart Rudner is a social media marketing expert and definitely worth “Following” and modeling.

Stuart is friendly, collegial and always responsive to any Employment Law question, using logic and experience to resolve complicated issues and providing practical advice. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Stuart is a leader of the employment law bar. He keep abreast of every development in his practice area, and through his blog and constant media presence he helps others keep up as well. Stuart can be counted on to provide practical advice and wise counsel on all aspects of employment law. A good guy to have in your corner!

I have gotten to know Stuart over the period of time I have been consulting and he has always willingly provided top-notch advice in the area of employment law. I have purchased his textbooks, ”You’re fired – Just Cause for Dismissal in Canada” and have found them to be an invaluable source of information and refer to them frequently. There is no doubt that he is a leader in the field of employment law and I would recommend him to anyone that required legal advice and guidance. One of the things that impresses me most about Stuart is his tireless contribution to the field of employment law and his willingness to offer support wherever and whenever he can. As a small consulting firm, he has offered incredible support to me and I am very grateful for his wisdom and guidance.

I have known Stuart for more than five years. As an advisor to clients in Senior Management positions I need someone I can trust when I refer clients for legal counsel relating to their employment. Stuart is a person of trust. Not just because of his knowledge and skill in the legal arena but also because of the way he treats people - with care and respect - important at all times but especially during the often tough circumstances he is helping them work through.

Stuart's practice is focused on employment law, an area in which he has developed considerable expertise. He provided legal counsel for my termination when I was recently let go. He understood my circumstances and concerns and provided understanding of the legal process and the options available.

Stuart represented me and kept me informed at every stage. He advised and represented me in a manner designed to achieve practical, cost-effective solutions.

With his experience we did not have to go to court in order to reach a reasonable settlement in a short period of time. It was a positive and rewarding experience under the circumstances. Stuart's focus is the bottom line: helping clients to maximize results while minimizing costs. I strongly recommend that if you have any employment-related issues, including offer letters or severance packages to be reviewed, that you contact Stuart. He advises and represents employers and employees.

I had a need to retain the services of a lawyer for a personal legal matter. As I worked at Miller Thomson at the time, in the IT department, I had knowledge of several lawyers I could have worked with but I chose Stuart because I felt that he had integrity and a sense of what is right and what is wrong. In the course of working with him on my legal issue over the next year, I found him to be very proactive and understanding of my issues in this matter. He handled everything with professionalism and class. I would, and have, highly recommended him to anyone that is in need of any legal advice or the services of a litigation lawyer.

I first came to know Stuart through his advice on LinkedIn and other sources such as HRPA and was very impressed with his knowledge and how he is able to provide solutions. Stuart is a very experienced and talented lawyer when it comes to employment law and I know that no matter how difficult a case, I am fully confident going to him for advice as I consider him to be the best in his field.

I recommend Stuart to all my clients knowing that they are in good hands and will have the best Employment Lawyer!

I have worked with Stuart for several years now across a number of client projects. Without exception, he continues to handle each situation with great care, integrity, honesty and in a very practical and highly responsive manner. His depth of knowledge and expertise in employment law matters is exceptional. He brings an infectious degree of passion and energy to his work. Stuart not only delivers results but has strong inter-personal skills and always remains calm and focused in the face of highly stressful situations. I have and will continue to recommend him to our clients without reservation.

I have consulted with Stuart on a number of files and referred my most trusted clients to him for expert advice and consummate professionalism. I rest easy knowing that my employment law and HR issues are in the hands of a true leader when Stuart takes on a file. Stuart has provided his guidance and advice to many of my clients whether they be on the employer or employee side of the legal equation. He is knowledgeable in the law, responsive to the clients, and strategic in his approach. I have no hesitation in recommending Stuart when an employment law issue surfaces.

Our firm had the pleasure of dealing with Stuart Rudner last year. He is, simply put, an excellent lawyer. Throughout the entire project, our Executive Team felt that we were availing ourselves of the best possible legal advice that money could buy. Stuart’s knowledge and diligence, combined with his friendly and approachable manner were truly appreciated by our organization. I would not hesitate to recommend Stuart to anyone.
