Labor and Employment Practice

Our firm advises and assists our clients in all kinds of labor and employment matters.  We keep abreast of changes in the law and developing trends so that our clients can be confident that their policies and day-to-day decisions are consistent with the law.  We represent our clients in union organizing campaigns and negotiate collective bargaining agreements.  We help our clients to create, implement, and amend employee benefit plans, and we represent them when litigation addresses those plans.  We counsel our clients on compliance with equal employment opportunity matters, wage and hour laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, workers’ compensation statutes, and other relevant federal and state statutes addressing workplace matters, and we defend them when their programs and decisions are the subject of governmental inquiry or private lawsuit.  

We also assist our clients in drafting employment manuals, drug and alcohol testing policies, and other documents regulating the workplace, and we provide training so that our clients’ supervisors and managers act in ways that comply with the law.
