Laurelle's legal skills, honed over more than 20 years as a practicing litigator, enable her to conduct impartial interviews, review and analyze information, assess credibility, and prepare written findings on a civil standard of proof for investigations of all complexities. Combined with her strong theoretic and practical expertise in intersectionality, anti-racism, and anti-oppression and the ways in which systemic and interpersonal oppressions manifest within workplaces, Laurelle possesses a unique skill set which is often ideal for complex investigations.
