Mark Alward

Expert guidance through a complex workplace investigation

I was referred to Mark Alward at Taylor McCaffrey after my employer initiated a workplace investigation that I felt was unfairly targeting me. The situation was incredibly stressful, and I needed someone who understood both the legal intricacies and the human impact. From our first meeting, Mark’s deep knowledge of Manitoba employment law was evident. He meticulously reviewed the allegations and my employment history, explaining my rights and options with remarkable clarity, never resorting to legal jargon. His recognition in Labour and Employment Law by Best Lawyers was well-reflected in his strategic approach. Mark prepared me thoroughly for interviews, advised on every communication, and negotiated assertively with the company’s counsel. The result was a complete resolution in my favour, with the investigation concluded without disciplinary action and my professional reputation intact. Throughout the six-month process, his professionalism was unwavering, and he was consistently responsive and calm, which provided immense reassurance. I cannot recommend Mark highly enough for anyone navigating sensitive employment matters in Winnipeg.
