Jordan Haworth is Associate Counsel at Evans Law Firm, where he represents employees and executives in all aspects of employment law, including wrongful and constructive dismissals, long-term disability claims, restrictive covenant disputes and provides proactive employment advice. He has a growing practice in human rights, including discrimination and harassment, whether it arises at termination or at any time during the employment relationship, particularly for employees on pregnancy, parental or medical leave, and for women and racialized persons. Clients rely on Jordan for advice that is strategic, thorough, and uniquely situated to their unique factual situation.
Jordan articled at a prominent boutique civil litigation law firm and practiced as an associate at a well-known Toronto employment law firm before joining Evans Law Firm. He gained experience across a wide range of matters, including class actions, constitutional and civil litigation, and workplace and multi-disciplinary disputes for employees and executives of all levels.
Before law school, Jordan earned a Bachelor of Journalism from Carleton University and reported on contemporary and topical issues, which instilled in him a balanced, objective perspective. He was part of a team whose First Nations water quality investigation was nominated for several awards, including the Michener Award for Public Service Journalism.
Jordan earned his Juris Doctor from the Lincoln Alexander School of Law in 2024. He received the Chancellor Emeritus G.
