5 out of 5 stars

I Had to drop a review here because Richard Savage absolutely saved the day for my small business. Running a startup in Vancouver's competitive market is no joke, and when we hit a serious employment law snag, I thought we were done for. But then, a colleague recommended Richard at Fasken, and man, am I glad they did.

First off, the guy knows his way around every corner of employment law like it's his backyard. We were dealing with a complex wrongful dismissal claim that had me losing sleep. Richard broke it down for us, explained our options in plain English, and laid out a strategy that was both smart and straightforward.

The coolest part? He navigated us through mediation like a pro, turning what I expected to be a courtroom drama into a smooth settlement that worked for everyone involved. Plus, he gave us some solid advice on how to avoid similar issues in the future, talking us through the dos and don'ts of employment standards like we were back in school (but in a good way).
