Annie Bourgeois, CHRP, focuses her practice on labour and employment law. She advises employers on labour relations issues at both the collective and individual levels, particularly with respect to labour standards, workplace harassment (including conducting investigations), executive compensation, drafting employment contracts, non-compete and loyalty obligations, dismissal, disciplinary measures, protection of personal information and human rights in the workplace.
Annie is versatile and assists her clients throughout all stages of a file. This includes developing strategies, drafting pleadings, and representing clients before the civil courts, administrative tribunals, specialized tribunals and arbitration panels. She is also certified by the Québec Bar as a lawyer who conducts workplace psychological harassment investigations.
During her studies, Annie was a member of Université Laval’s Rouge et Or track & field and cross-country team, and competed in national competitions. Her experiences as an athlete have drawn her more and more into the field of sports law, where she provides legal advice to sports federations and athletes, particularly in connection with team selection, disciplinary measures, disciplinary investigations and safe sport related matters. She also represents the Canadian anti-doping authorities.
