Hicks Morley has provided an extensive range of services to financial institutions since the formation of our firm in 1972. With this long history, we bring a depth and breadth of human resources expertise to our clients that is unparalleled in the financial services sector.

We act for all types of financial services institutions – banks and trust companies, insurance companies, investment management firms and many others – and provide a full range of human resources law and advocacy services. In particular, we have done extensive work for firms in the areas of labour relations, collective bargaining, employment litigation (including class action lawsuits), human rights, and pension and benefits.

Privacy is another key area in this sector. As custodians of their clients’ financial information, financial services companies place particular importance on their privacy policies and often require privacy law expertise. Hicks Morley has helped our clients in this sector conduct comprehensive privacy audits and ensure that staff understand and contribute to the compliance process.

We regularly act for our financial institution clients in a full range of proceedings before regulatory tribunals and we have also provided training in all areas relating to human resources.
