Colson Winterstein LLP

Colson Winterstein LLP was founded in 2023 by the employment lawyers in the Colson Group at the former Teplitsky, Colson LLP Colson Winterstein brings the same quality and experience that our client base has always enjoyed to a new banner. At Colson Winterstein, we manage files differently. We aim for fast, effective resolution on your terms. Every client comes to us with a different perspective, a different approach, and with different objectives and motivations. We work with you to understand your desired outcome and risk appetite and we tailor our approach to achieve your goals. We work hard to partner with you in a way that optimizes the opportunity to win on your terms. We are pioneers in employment law. Our founding partner, Robert Colson, changed the employment law landscape twenty-five years ago when he won the largest constructive dismissal award ever made historically in Canada in Schumacher v. Toronto Dominion Bank. Since then, we have continued to achieve extraordinary results for clients both in and out of the courtroom and our practice has continued to grow almost exclusively as a result of referrals from very satisfied former clients. In total, over the past 25 years we have acted as counsel in more than 4,600 employment files. We offer uncompromising quality and pride ourselves on a client-focussed pro-active level of service. We have decades of specialized knowledge from dealing with employers, institutions and corporations on behalf of our employee clients. We have deep expertise in employment strategy and in the ever-changing legal landscape. We know the ins and outs of employment and we use that knowledge to your advantage. We have represented clients engaged in disputes with almost every federally and provincially regulated financial institution in Canada including all of the banks, many broker-dealers and IIROC registrants as well as others working in the financial services sector.
