Litigating for Employers
When a dispute does arise, our Labor and Employment attorneys are qualified and prepared to handle each phase of litigation efficiently and cost-effectively.
Our attorneys have represented employers in federal and state court, administrative forums, and in arbitration. We also regularly defend employee lawsuits, handle governmental investigations and audits, and respond to agency changes and complaints.
We also have substantial experience prosecuting and defending cases in both federal and state courts (involving disputes over misappropriation of trade secrets, non-competes, disloyal acts by employees, and civil rights violations.)
