For Labour Lawyers

A case-management and assessment platform for the firm's own labour files, built by the editor of Canadian Labour Arbitration — it reads the agreement, assesses the case, and puts your own past decisions a search away.

Grounded in the editorial discipline behind the reference text Canadian arbitrators cite.

Built by the editor of Canadian Labour Arbitration (Brown & Beatty) — the reference text Canadian arbitrators cite.

Assess and Prepare, on Both Sides

Search Your Own Decision Database

  • Natural-language search: Search across your firm's own arbitration decisions by the facts of your matter, not just keywords
  • Filter by arbitrator: See how a specific arbitrator has approached comparable issues before your next appointment
  • Filter by issue and outcome: Narrow to discipline, seniority, contracting-out, or any issue type — and by outcome
  • Cite the decision text: Every result links back to the full decision so you can verify before citing in a brief
  • Editorial discipline: Indexed with the same editorial discipline behind Canadian Labour Arbitration, so your decisions are read the way arbitrators read them
  • AI Q&A: Ask questions across the decision library and get answers that cite the specific decisions they draw from

Prepare Cases Faster

  • Upload the agreement: Sertus parses articles and clauses from the client’s collective agreement automatically
  • Upload the grievance file: Evidence and documents are parsed and indexed, ready for analysis
  • Case assessment: A structured posture assessment grounded in the actual agreement, evidence, and established facts
  • Evidence summaries: Summarised evidence with citations back to the originals — useful for brief drafting
  • First-pass correspondence: Draft step letters, settlement proposals, and procedural correspondence — reviewed and refined by counsel
  • Traceable outputs: Every AI output traces back to the underlying agreement, evidence, and cited decision — nothing is opaque
