Meet Michelle Nicole Dewar
Michelle Dewar – Founder & Principal Paralegal at MN Dewar’s Legal Services Inc.
With a distinguished career spanning over 27 years in Human Resources and Total Rewards, Michelle brings a unique and invaluable perspective to the legal field. As the Founder and Principal Paralegal at MN Dewar’s Legal Services Inc., Michelle combines her deep expertise in HR, employee relations, compensation strategies, and organizational development with a true passion for serving others, particularly in the areas of employment law, family law, family mediation, arbitration, notary services, WSIB Claims, and paralegal services across Ontario. Her extensive HR background not only strengthens her legal acumen but also fuels her dedication to making a positive difference in people’s lives, especially in times of conflict and need.
Michelle’s journey began in the dynamic world of Human Resources, where she spent over two decades working across diverse sectors—both public and private. Over the years, she developed a comprehensive understanding of the complexities that employees, employers, and organizations face in managing workplace disputes, employment law matters, and compliance. She has worked on a wide range of issues, including wrongful dismissal, workplace harassment, employee benefits, and compensation, which honed her skills in conflict resolution and fair treatment. These experiences laid the foundation for her transition into the legal field, where she could apply her expertise to help individuals navigate legal matters in family law, employment disputes, and workplace conflict.
Michelle’s transition from HR to law was driven by her desire to have a more direct impact on people’s lives and provide them with the guidance they need to resolve complex issues with fairness and integrity. Her work as a Family Mediator at the Mediation Center of Halton and Hamilton Inc. is a perfect example of how her HR background complements her legal practice. Through family mediation, Michelle helps clients navigate difficult situations like separation, custody and access arrangements, spousal support, child support, and property division. Whether she is working with high-conflict parents or helping couples create lasting, fair agreements, Michelle brings her deep understanding of human behavior, communication, and conflict resolution to each case. This holistic approach, rooted in both legal knowledge and her background in organizational dynamics, enables her to craft practical, sustainable solutions that benefit all parties involved.
Michelle’s deep commitment to helping others is reflected in her approach to all aspects of her work. As an HR professional, she was a staunch advocate for employees, ensuring they received fair treatment, access to benefits, and support in difficult times. This advocacy continues in her role as a paralegal, where she now represents individuals in legal matters, assists with litigation, and helps them through mediation and arbitration processes. Whether assisting clients with separation agreements, workplace harassment claims, or labor disputes, Michelle’s goal is to create an environment of support, understanding, and resolution.
Through her work, Michelle remains driven by a deep desire to make a positive impact on the lives of individuals, families, and businesses. Her holistic approach to legal and organizational issues allows her to offer not only expert legal counsel but also compassionate, client-focused solutions that consider both the emotional and practical aspects of each situation. Whether in the courtroom, mediation sessions, or in business strategy meetings, Michelle’s goal is always the same: to help her clients navigate challenges with confidence and achieve lasting, fair outcomes.
