Kara began working at Chivers Carpenter as a summer student during law school and then went on to article with the firm in 2004. Kara has participated in numerous Labour Board and Arbitration hearings and has written legal opinions and briefs on a wide variety of topics. She has given presentations at our firm seminars and client events on such topics as personal appearance in the workplace, the wearing of union insignia, recent decisions of the Labour Relations Board, the history of women in the trade union movement in Canada and punitive damages.
Kara has always been interested in practicing in the area of labour as she comes from a family with a rich trade union background.
