Employment law encompasses a wide range of issues and concerns in the workplace.
Terms and conditions of employment frequently give rise to disputes. These problems can be lessened through carefully drafted handbooks and contracts. Policies and procedures thought out in advance can minimize the potential for expensive and time-consuming conflict between the employer and employee. For these reasons, the firm emphasizes the importance of counseling employers on employment practices, including compliance with the myriad of federal and state laws such as the Family and Medical Leave Act, Human Rights Act, and wage-hour laws. The firm also assists clients in developing and regularly reviewing customized employment manuals to govern their workplaces.
