We Welcome Associate Nigel McKechnie to Hicks Morley

Hicks Morley is pleased to announce that Nigel McKechnie has joined the firm as an associate in our Ottawa office.

Nigel, who practises in both English and French, is experienced in providing employers with advice on a wide variety of matters in both unionized and non-unionized contexts and in litigating matters before the courts, boards of arbitration and administrative tribunals. As lead lawyer and co-counsel on a variety of complex civil matters, Nigel conducted examinations for discovery, cross-examinations, contested motions, mediations and pre-trials. He regularly advised provincially and federally regulated employers and he has considerable experience in labour arbitrations, collective bargaining and judicial review proceedings.

Prior to joining Hicks Morley, Nigel practised labour and employment law at a full-service firm as well as a management-side labour and employment firm. Additionally, he has previously represented the employee/union side, which gives him a unique perspective when advising employers and resolving workplace disputes.

We wish Nigel a warm welcome!
