 Ken Alexander, B.A., LL.B.
For the past fifteen years Ken’s professional activities have focused exclusively on labour and employment law litigation. Ken’s practice encompasses a broad range of employment law matters, including wrongful dismissal, human rights, sexual harassment, Employment Standards Act rights and complaints, employment contracts, disability claims, collective bargaining agreements, fraud, fiduciary duties, labour relations, injunctions, cross-border labour issues, non-competition covenants, misrepresentation, defamation and class actions, as well as providing advice on all aspects of employment law and civil litigation. Ken regularly appears before all levels of court in Ontario, as well as the Ontario Labour Relations Board, Employment Standards Referees and the Human Rights Tribunal of Ontario.
Ken has developed a reputation as an experienced, thoughtful, ethical and skilled litigator with a no-nonsense approach to finding the most practical and cost-effective solutions for his clients. He has served as winning counsel on several leading employment law decisions in Ontario, including Allstate Insurance Co. of Canada v. Laroque (2008), 64 C.C.E.L. (3d) 119, where Ken successfully defended a former employee of a major national insurance company against an injunction application that would have devastated the employee’s independent insurance brokerage.
Ken is a former instructor at the University of Western Ontario Law School and lecturer in continuing legal education seminars for the Ontario Bar Association, Canada Law Book and the Law Society of Upper Canada.
Ken obtained his LL.B. from the University of Windsor in 1992, where he was the recipient of the John Whiteside Award in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the University’s Faculty of Law. He is a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve.
