Biography
George Vuicic is a labour and employment lawyer in Hicks Morley’s Ottawa office and a member of the firm’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee. In his fully bilingual practice, he advises and represents employers on a broad range of labour and employment issues including litigation, regulatory prosecutions, arbitration and labour board proceedings.
George advises school boards, colleges and universities on both labour relations and education law including special education issues and other student-related issues. He has considerable experience advising parliamentary employers on the unique employment issues they face. George has appeared before all levels of court in Ontario, as well as the Federal Court of Canada and Federal Court of Appeal.
George thrives on helping employers meet the challenges arising out of their workplace and achieve their organizational goals. He takes pride in getting to know each employer’s particular circumstances and objectives, and in working closely with them as a trusted strategic advisor.
When he is not working with employers, George enjoys travelling with his family, running and cycling (on roads, off roads and in the snow).
