Employment and Labor Issues

Recognizing the unique working environment and business style of each business, we tailor our advice on labor matters to specific needs. We offer counsel on formulating strategies related to:

  • Creating policies pertaining to human resources and personnel management; 
  • Union relationships and organizing campaigns; 
  • Responses to allegations of sexual harassment in the workplace, age discrimination, discrimination based on sex, race or disability, and wrongful discharge or termination;
  • Risk management aimed at minimizing business' exposure to employment-related lawsuits;
  • Creation and enforcement of employment agreements and restrictive covenants;
  • Creation of incentive arrangements;
  • Job separation situations; 
  • Contract negotiations in the context of pre-existing collective bargaining agreements; 
  • Strategies for coping with investigations by regulatory bodies; and 
  • Compliance with labor-related federal and state law and regulations.
