Constitutional & Human Rights Class Actions

Constitutional & Human Rights Class Actions

Have your fundamental rights, as guaranteed by the Charters, been violated by a government or public institution? Kugler Wechsler brings class actions to have these violations recognized and obtain compensation for those affected.

Your Fundamental Rights Are Non-Negotiable

Your fundamental rights, guaranteed by the Canadian and Quebec Charters, protect your freedom, your dignity and your right to fair treatment by the State.

When these rights are violated by a public institution, you do not have to face the State alone.

Kugler Wechsler brings class actions against the governments of Quebec and Canada to have these violations of your fundamental rights recognized and to obtain, for you and others affected, fair compensation.

Our lawyers have brought these cases before the Superior Court and the Court of Appeal of Quebec, obtaining judgments and settlements that force institutions to change their practices.

Our class action brought on behalf of thousands of people illegally detained in Quebec, currently on appeal, led to a judgment of over $164 million, one of the largest awards in the history of class actions in Quebec.

Do you believe you have been affected by a violation of your fundamental rights by a public institution? Contact our team today to check your eligibility and learn about your options.
