Called to the Quebec Bar in 2008, Me Christelle Leblanc is a member of the Labour and Employment Group at the Quebec City office. Me Leblanc’s practice focuses on collective bargaining, occupational health and safety, collective and individual labour relations, administrative investigations, and the drafting of employment contracts. She draws on her in-depth knowledge of the public administration, public and private commercial education sectors, as well as the manufacturing industry, particularly foundries.
Me Leblanc holds a bachelor’s degree in law and an MBA from the Université de Sherbrooke and was awarded the 5-Star Safety Lawyer distinction in 2022 by Canadian Occupational Safety. She distinguishes herself through her unique expertise as a corporate human resources manager and, consequently, as a client of law firms. This rich experience has shaped her practical, pragmatic approach. Indeed, Me Leblanc adopts a proactive perspective as a partner to her clients, positioning herself as an upstream advisor, offering her clients the ability to manage their human resources and business risks effectively. Available and responsive, she is recognized for her team spirit and dynamic approach.
Beyond the legal arena, Me Leblanc devotes her time to her family. She also enjoys cycling and broadening her knowledge of wine. She is also driven by a cause she holds close to her heart: the Alicia Merci Foundation. This organization raises funds to support Dr. Bruno Michon’s work on protocols and drugs available elsewhere in the world to treat the rare pediatric cancers of local children treated at the Quebec City University Hospital.
