Robert J. Affleck

A strategic and compassionate advocate in a complex employment dispute

When my former employer terminated my position under highly questionable circumstances, I was overwhelmed and uncertain of my rights. From our initial consultation, Robert Affleck of McKercher LLP demonstrated a command of employment law that was immediately reassuring. He didn't just recite statutes; he outlined a clear, strategic path forward, explaining the nuances of my case with remarkable clarity. His background, including his Juris Doctor with Distinction from the University of Saskatchewan, was evident in his meticulous approach. Robert’s recognized expertise in Labour and Employment Law proved invaluable as he navigated the complexities of my severance negotiation and potential wrongful dismissal claim. He was consistently professional, yet never impersonal, taking the time to ensure I understood every development. His negotiation was firm and data-driven, ultimately securing a settlement that far exceeded my expectations and protected my professional reputation. The entire team at McKercher LLP was supportive, but Robert’s direct involvement and strategic guidance were the cornerstone of the positive outcome. For anyone in the Las Vegas area facing workplace legal challenges, I cannot recommend Robert J. Affleck more highly. He is the exact blend of sharp legal intellect and genuine client advocacy you hope to find.
