I was fired without cause my first day back to work after my maternity leave, citing I was no longer the right fit for the job. I have been with the company for 8 years. They allowed me to return for 2 hours to avoid a wrongful dismissal suit. They've offered me 8 weeks notice and 8 weeks severance. Should I seek legal council?

My name is David Vaughan and I am an employment lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin. Your employer's actions likely constitute a human rights violation. Further, the severance package you were offered is clearly below your common law entitlements. Please visit the Severance Calculator (http://www.severancepaycalculator.com/) for an estimate of your full entitlements and contact our firm to discuss the matter in more detail and determine how we can assist you.
