Brittany Taylor was attracted to employment law because of the people-focused nature of the practice. Every case is unique, and often deeply personal. At the same time, the stories and situations are inherently relatable, as work forms a hugely significant part of our day-to-day lives. This area of the law is also constantly evolving, which makes her job even more engaging and challenging.
Since being called to the Ontario Bar in 2013, Brittany’s practice has been dedicated to assisting employers and employees to manage their workplaces. Her approach to workplace issues is pro-active and preventative, taking satisfaction in assisting employees and employers to identify and deal with potential issues before they evolve into headaches for both parties. She also takes pride in acting as a vigorous advocate on behalf of her clients, whether at the bargaining table or at the trial stage.
Brittany pursued a double major in English and Classical Studies at the University of Western Ontario and discovered an interest in law when she was hired as a legal assistant for an in-house corporate law department following graduation. After a few years in the workforce, she returned to Western to obtain her Juris Doctor, graduating with distinction in 2012.
Since leaving law school behind, Brittany has been able to continue to explore her love of writing in her practice, both in her work for clients and in the publications and presentations she has produced. Since starting with Rudner Law in August 2015, she has contributed regular posts to the firm’s blog and has been published in such publications as Canadian HR Reporter.
Brittany has also been invited to speak at a number of conferences and panels, including events hosted by the Canadian Marketing Association, the Women’s Law Association of Ontario and the HRPA.
In addition to writing, Brittany has a passion for digital art and comics. She has been drawing since before the age of 10 and enjoys continuing to learn and develop her skills through various courses including YouTube tutorials. She is a regular attendee at comic and anime conventions and has been known to dress up in costume. Brittany is an avid practitioner of yoga and dedicated to her two Shih Tzu mixes, Rocket and Theta.
