Employment Litigation Defense

Federal and state employment laws impose strict legal obligations on employers, subjecting them to severe scrutiny and attack by employees. Businesses turn to our lawyers for our proven track record of successfully disposing of employment lawsuits through motions, mediations, arbitrations, or trials. Our employment lawyers blend the substantive knowledge of employment and labor law with the proven experience of trial lawyers to provide effective results for our clients.

We understand the sensitive issues that often arise and the need for immediate and decisive action when an employment issue arises. Our clients rely on us to promptly investigate employee claims and make recommendations on how to best proceed before substantial time and expenses are incurred. If an early resolution cannot be achieved, our lawyers will provide a vigorous defense to achieve the best results for our clients.

We have successfully defended employers against a wide variety of employment claims, including claims arising under the Americans With Disabilities Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, ERISA, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act.
