Employment & Labor Law

Our lawyers involved in labor and employment law address issues related to the employment relationship, including administrative and judicial proceedings for the defense of wrongful discharge, discrimination, harassment, civil rights, unemployment compensation, and wage and hour claims. Our employment law practice also includes advice for OFCCP, wage and hour claims, and other employment practice audits. Our labor attorneys also represent clients in arbitrations, labor negotiations, and all types of National Labor Relations Board proceedings. Although a significant number of employment matters are litigated, our lawyers provide counsel and training to clients on personnel policies to avoid potential or future litigation and assist with human resource management. Some of the services available include assisting clients with the development of employee handbooks, drug and alcohol testing programs, and preparing and updating retirement plans and compensation plans to ensure compliance with the Internal Revenue Code and ERISA. The distribution of our firm's quarterly newsletter, Employment Law Update, is another service offered in an effort to keep clients abreast of continuing changes and developments in employment law.
