G.R. v. Canada Employment Insurance Commission, 2016 SSTGDEI

Client applied for EI benefits and was denied. The main issue was whether the Appellant lost his employment by reason of his own conduct, specifically being terminated for absenteeism. Chris was able to successfully show that his client’s actions did not constitute misconduct.

Gibson v Matthies, 2017 BCSC 839

Chris represented the defendant in a claim brought by the plaintiff in relation to a motorcycle accident. After a three-day trial on liability, the Court determined that the plaintiff was 75% responsible for the accident.

Grewal v. Naumann, 2017 BCCA 158

WCAT No. A1604204

Chris represented the developer of a large construction project in Abbotsford that was fined almost $60,000 in two separate penalty orders for alleged safety contraventions on site. After an initial review, the Review Division doubled the second penalty, increasing the total fine to $90,000. We appealed to WCAT and it was determined the Review Division’s reasoning was flawed. As a result, the second penalty was cancelled altogether and the fine reduced to less than $30,000.

Sidhu v. Hothi, 2014 BCCA 510

Skawski v. Peters, 2023 BCSC 2244
