Simone Truemner-Caron

An energetic advocate for the rights of unions and individuals, Simone Truemner-Caron brings excellent research, writing and interpersonal skills to her practice of labour, human rights and criminal law.

Simone’s practice centres on the litigation of individual and policy grievances on behalf of union and professional association clients, particularly in the education and transit sectors. Her labour practice regularly engages issues in constitutional, human rights, contract, and privacy law. Her legal record includes litigating grievances related to fitness-for-duty policies and participating in Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms challenges. She practises fluently in both French and English.

Before entering law, Simone was a teacher — experience that informs her practical understanding of workplace dynamics in the education sector and strengthens her advocacy for education workers.

In addition to her practice, Simone serves as an Adjunct Professor at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law, where she teaches Legal Research and Writing. She has published in peer-reviewed journals on topics including vicarious liability, minority language rights, and privacy rights.

Simone holds a JD and LLM from Université de Sherbrooke and an LLB from Université du Québec à Montréal. She is a member of the Law Society of Ontario, the Canadian Association of Labour Lawyers, the Canadian Bar Association, and l’Association des juristes d’expression française de l’Ontario.
