Definitely recommend Stuart Rudner and his wonderful staff

Stuart Rudner was recommended to me and I have to say that I'm grateful he was!  He helped me navigate through a difficult situation at work and the outcome was positive.  It's a great feeling knowing that you have someone like Stuart in your corner when times are tough.  I would most definitely recommend Stuart Rudner and his wonderful staff!

Quality legal services and emotional support when needed

Working with Nadia Zaman and the Rudner Law team was a pleasure. Not only did Nadia explain my litigation and non-litigation options, but she also had my best interest in mind when advising on managing my employer and anticipating their next steps. I was happy to learn that litigation was not the only way to handle my workplace situation. Although I received guidance on the likelihood of my case succeeding at trial, I never felt I needed to take my problem to court. In addition to explaining my legal rights, Nadia helped me understand some employment law fundamentals that would help me make informed choices in other workplaces throughout my career. In addition to providing quality legal services and emotional support when I needed one, Nadia helped keep my budget in check. She advised me on the cost-saving ways to communicate with my legal team. Finally, I am thankful to Nadia Zaman and Rudner Law for addressing my case holistically and consistently keeping my legal issues, emotional needs and financial constraints at the forefront of their mind. 

Professional and Wise

Stuart, I was very impressed with your approach and results at the mediation last week. My client sent a very positive message to Tiffany and I wanted to thank you for your professionalism, humour and wisdom. I look forward to working together in the future.

Diligent and Effective Mediator

Stuart is a diligent and effective mediator. He develops a good rapport with the parties and then builds on the at to achieve a fair settlement.

I can’t recommend Stuart and the team at Rudner law enough. 

I can’t recommend Stuart and the team at Rudner law enough.  I have engaged them with several clients and have been very happy with their support.

Stuart Proactively Protected us by Thinking Ahead

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.

Highly recommend Stuart Rudner to mediate your Employment Law cases

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.

Effective and Creative Mediator

Stuart was an effective and creative mediator and was able to obtain a resolution in a situation that was difficult for the parties. I recommend Stuart to others as he was also a pleasure to deal with and worked well with my client.

Highly recommend Rudner Law

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.

Knowledgeable, strategic and responsive

I have known Stuart for several years, and he has consistently provided my firm with strategic legal advice regarding our employment law concerns. He responds quickly to deal with any issues that arise, and also works with us proactively to reduce our liability while also maximizing our rights as an employer. He is knowledgeable, strategic and responsive, and we look to Stuart and his team as Strategic Advisors when it comes to employment law.

A leader in his field

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.

Timely strategic 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.

Knowledge, skill and dedicated attention to the case at hand

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.

Extremely personable and professional

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.

A true partner and advocate

I have had the pleasure to know Stuart Rudner now for a number of years. In my capacity as a senior HR leader, I have found Stuart’s employment law advice to always be strategic. He is both proactive and responsive, and is a true partner and advocate for the companies that I have been associated with.

Thought leader on any employment law topic

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.

Astute Employment Lawyer

Stuart Rudner is a well-informed, astute Employment Lawyer with his finger on the pulse of emerging developments. His frequent top notch blogs, articles and social media posts are a must read for employers, employees and his peers.

A leader in the field of employment law

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.

Stuart is a person of trust

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.

He understood my circumstances and concerns

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.

Very proactive and understanding

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.

A very experienced and talented 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!

We needed his top notch guidance

I have found Stuart to be very inclusive. When I asked him to come to St. Catharines to do an Employer Seminar on Terminations – he was immediately willing. We needed his knowledge and practicality in Niagara and he was happy to assist us. Thanks for making the trip, Stuart. Employers ask me when you are coming again.

If you ever require hight level advice

I had the pleasure of meeting Stuart in 2008. He was highly recommended to me by the General Counsel of one of Canada's largest employers. If you ever require high level advice regarding HR Legal matters I would also recommend him.

Instrumental in assisting our clients

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.

A true partner

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.

An excellent lawyer

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.
