ABOUT KATHRYN MARSHALL
I am a fearless and tireless advocate. I founded my own law firm Marshall Law, which is dedicated to fighting for people who have been wronged and treated unfairly in the workplace and beyond. We practice law across Canada. I am known for fighting for my clients until the end and empowering them. I handle all areas of employment and human rights law, as well as personal injury cases involving sexual misconduct. My law practice is Canada-wide. I understand that work is a core part of a person’s life. I have represented thousands of people, from students, journalists, educators and nurses, to physicians, CEO’s, politicians, executives and even an ambassador. I handle everything from contract negotiation to litigation involving wrongful termination. Not afraid of a fight, I have made a name for myself litigating high-profile cases. I am known for taking on major corporations, governments and powerful institutions. Some of my noteworthy cases include representing a wrongfully accused soldier against the military, acting for a whistleblower political staffer against the government and fighting for an indigenous student against Canada’s most powerful foundation. I have been providing media commentary and writing columns for the past 15 years. I write an influential column for the National Post. I am passionate about improving the law and fixing injustices and inequalities. I helped write new employment law as part of a special committee on the future of work, appointed by the government of Ontario. This included both the ban on non-compete clauses and the right to disconnect. I have also provided testimony to the federal Parliament about ways to enhance legal protections for vulnerable girls and women. For the past 4 years, I have been voted as a top employment lawyer in Toronto. I have also been nominated by Canadian Lawyer Magazine as one of Canada’s most influential human rights lawyers. I am the recipient of the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee medal, which recognizes contributions by Canadians to their communities. My cases are regularly featured in the mainstream and legal media.Outside of law, I enjoy travelling, writing and spending time with my young family and two Russian Blue cats.
