I had the pleasure of working with Christin on a particularly tricky employment matter last year, and honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From our first meeting in her office near the bustling downtown core, it was clear Christin was not your average lawyer. With over 15 years under her belt, her depth of knowledge in employment and labour law really shone through, guiding me through a maze I thought I'd never navigate successfully.

Christin's approach was refreshingly practical, always with an eye on what was best for my small business. She helped us revamp our employment agreements and policies, ensuring we were up to speed with both provincial standards and the Canada Labour Code. It was like she had a sixth sense for pinpointing where our vulnerabilities lay and how to fortify them.
