Avoiding Employee Disputes

Our practice includes helping employers prevent disputes and litigation. We review manuals, assist with the development of procedures and policies, and provide day-to-day assistance and support. We present training programs for employees and supervisors in public and private sector settings. Our involvement helps employers stay in compliance with state and federal employment laws. This allows them to stay focused on their business goals, avoiding the expense and disruption of a lawsuit.

  • Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Hearings

  • Retaliation claims
  • State and federal wage and hour laws
