Michelle Kim
Our company faced a high-stakes wrongful termination lawsuit that threatened significant financial and reputational damage. We engaged Stephen Shamie on the recommendation of our Canadian parent company, citing his deep expertise in cross-border labour and employment law. From our first meeting in Jacksonville, his strategic approach was evident. He leveraged his unique dual background—his LL.B. from Queen’s and M.B.A. from McGill—to not only dissect the legal intricacies but also to frame our defense in terms a corporate board could understand. His 19 years of experience, particularly the nuanced strategies developed over 15+ years in this specific field, were invaluable. Stephen meticulously prepared our case, anticipating every argument from the plaintiff’s counsel. His recognition in the Canadian Legal Lexpert® Directory was no mere accolade; it reflected the caliber of his analytical rigor. The result was a decisive summary judgment in our favor, dismissing the case entirely before trial. Stephen is more than an attorney; he is a counselor who provides clarity under pressure. His professionalism and ability to navigate the intersection of U.S. and Canadian employment law principles make him an exceptional resource for any business with complex workforce challenges.
