Our Team
Dana Du Perron
Prior to co-founding Resolutions At Work, Dana worked for nearly a decade in private practice, focused almost exclusively on employment law. As a result, Dana developed a deep understanding of all areas of workplace law. She advocated for clients in provincial and federal court, and was a regular speaker/contributor at employment law conferences across Ontario.
The aspect of Dana's practice that she most enjoyed was helping her clients achieve favourable resolutions of their legal matters. Accordingly, she decided to move into the neutral role of workplace investigator/reviewer, mediator, and trainer, to allow her to focus exclusively on helping parties reach a resolution to their workplace issues. Dana's goal is to treat everyone she encounters with care and compassion as they navigate the challenging issues that can arise within our workplaces.
