SPA Labor Relations Division
This free of charge service allows you to meet with a volunteer lawyer for approximately twenty minutes to receive information on how to prepare your brief and what to expect at your hearing before the Tribunal administratif du travail, division des relations du travail. The service is available only to unrepresented parties who have filed a complaint of union misrepresentation under sections 47.2 and 47.3 of the Labour Code and who have received notice of a hearing before the Tribunal administratif du travail, division des relations du travail in the district of Montréal.
Important meeting information
- Given the fact that places are limited, meetings are held by appointment only.
- Meetings are held by telephone from Monday to Friday between 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm.
- You must ensure that you have all the documents in your file with you. The volunteer lawyer will not have your file in his or her possession.
- No appointments are given if you do not have a hearing date.
IMPORTANT: No legal advice will be given at these meetings. The lawyer will help you organize your presentation, but will not provide you with arguments to make during the presentation, nor will he or she give an opinion on your chances of success.
To learn more about the union's duty of fair representation, we suggest you consult the Tribunal administratif du travail website.
