Informed and responsive decision support

It's no accident that Emond Harnden has grown and evolved into Ottawa's most trusted advisor to employers in labour and employment law. Or, that we remain the largest management-side labour law firm in Ottawa, focused exclusively on the specialized needs of organizations in the region.

We take great pride in our continuing effort to attract and retain lawyers and legal support professionals with superior skills, and a solid track record of success. We provide those professionals with the most advanced technological and information resources available, along with continuous and exhaustive professional development opportunities. And we've built a positive and supportive team-oriented environment in which the very best of each individual's talents and abilities are utilized to the highest possible level.

At the same time, we have recognized that the labour and employment climate in the region is unique and highly challenging. And we've never wavered in our dedication to serving this community, and serving it well.

That commitment shows - in the growing public and private sector clientele who trust us on a daily basis, not simply as advisors, but as an integrated extension of their public affairs and HR departments, and senior management teams. It shows in the groundbreaking legal contributions we've made, and in our efforts to remain an integral part of the community and give back, through substantial charitable support and community involvement.

Our outlook and reputation are national. But our commitment is local. And that commitment will always form the underpinning of who we are as professionals. And as a firm dedicated to the needs of the managerial community
