Colson Winterstein LLP
Jan 2023 - nowBarrister | PartnerColson Winterstein LLP is an offshoot of the firm that was formerly known as Teplitsky, Colson LLP. Our practice is focused on the resolution of employment-related issues for clients at the C-Suite level with particular attention to those who are employed in the financial services sector and have legally complex compensation arrangements. Our legal team collectively brings over 70 years of legal experience to the table. We act almost exclusively for employees whose employment has come to an end and who retain us to maximize the financial return of the termination through a thorough understanding of the factual background, the client's unique goals and objectives, and our extensive knowledge of the law and of the employers who we are acting against. We provide a unique and tailored service to all of our clients and we are committed to working in partnership with them to optimize the final result. We are experienced negotiators and litigators, and the results we obtain for our clients reflect our expertise. Our practice has been built through referrals from former clients who valued the outcome we achieved for them and who felt that the process through which resolution was reached was one that fit with their particular goals and objectives. There is no greater compliment than a referral from a satisfied former client: it allows us to grow our practice by working with like-minded people who in turn have the confidence to refer others.Feel free to explore the profiles of the other members of our legal team, @Michael Winterstein, @Jameel Madhany and @Malcolm Woodside at your convenience.
