Labour

Since 1989, Pink Larkin has been at the forefront of the trade union movement, and we are recognized nationally as one of the leading union-side labour law firms in Canada. Our clients, including provincially and federally regulated trade unions and professional associations, rely on us to provide counsel and strategic advice on a wide range of labour issues. We offer clients a dedicated, purposeful, and pragmatic approach, with a strong focus on delivering outcomes that protect and advance their interests.

We work with many trade unions and professional associations on day-to-day matters, including strategic planning, organizing, grievances, and certifications, and more complex matters, including collective bargaining, collective agreement interpretation and administration, dispute resolution, and union governance. We frequently represent clients at grievance arbitrations, before provincial and federal Labour Boards and other Tribunals, and in Courts throughout Canada.

Since our inception, our clients have grown, and so have we. Our deep bench strength and institutional knowledge allows us to assist trade unions and professional associations not only with labour relations matters, but also matters respecting human rights, Occupational Health and Safety, regulatory environments, and civil litigation. Our lawyers and staff possess a deep understanding of the dynamics and contexts involved in all legal and non-legal matters that impact our trade union clients.

Our clients value our focused and practical approach to labour law. We are leaders in the field, known for the insight and strategic guidance we deliver. At Pink Larkin, we value the relationships we have built with our union-side labour clients, and the opportunity to provide them with advice and guidance whenever and wherever needed.
