The Lawyer Who Actually Knows What It's Like to Be an Employee
Unlike most employment lawyers who went straight from university to law school, Saad brings
something unique to employment law: he's been in your shoes. Before becoming a lawyer, Saad worked
over a dozen different jobs across industries—from customer service representative and product
specialist to court administrator, recruitment consultant, and corporate training manager
Real Employee Experience Across Every Level:
Frontline Worker: Customer service at call centers, retail product specialist at The Source
Mid-Management: Samsung field marketing representative, assistant program coordinator
Corporate Professional: Commercial leasing administrator at Rexall, corporate training manager
Government Employee: Court administrator with the City of Mississauga
Claims Professional: Claims management services at RSA Insurance
This isn’t just legal theory—Saad understands workplace dynamics, corporate politics, management pressures, and employee challenges from lived experience at every organizational level.
After being called to the Ontario Bar, Saad spent years as in-house counsel at major corporations including Cineplex and Huawei Technologies, where he often managed painful layoffs and witnessed firsthand how employees were treated during difficult transitions.
This corporate insider perspective—combined with his own employee journey—revealed the urgent need for employment lawyers who truly understand both sides.
• He’s negotiated as an employee seeking better terms and conditions
• He’s been managed, promoted, and restructured in real workplace scenarios
• He’s seen corporate decision-making from the inside as in-house counsel
• He speaks your language—literally and figuratively (5 languages: English, Urdu, Arabic, Hindi, Punjabi, French)
When Saad reviews your termination letter, he knows what the corporate lawyers were thinking when they wrote it. When he negotiates your severance, he understands the business pressures your employer faces. When he fights your wrongful dismissal claim, he’s drawing on years of being both employee and legal counsel.
Professional Credentials:
• Licensed with the Law Society of Ontario since 2020
• 10+ years combined employee and legal experience
• Specialized training in negotiation (Stitt Feld Handy Course)
• Corporate and employment law expertise from Bridge Law and major in-house roles
Saad is a father, a basketball coach, an automotive enthusiast, and a lover of travel, cooking, and languages.
He brings the same passion and energy to his practice that he brings to mentoring youth and building community—because he knows what it means to work hard, support a family, and fight for what’s fair.
We’re driven by a vision of a fairer workplace where employees are respected and valued. Our work isn’t just about winning cases; it’s about restoring dignity and creating lasting change.
