What Is Employment Law?

The goal of employment law is to ensure the fair and ethical treatment of employees while clearly defining the rights and obligations of employers. This impacts many areas, such as:

  • Employment discrimination: Employers are prohibited from discriminating based on race, gender, sex, age, pregnancy status, disability and other protected characteristics.
  • Wage and hour issues: All employees must be paid at least minimum wage, correctly compensated for overtime hours and treated fairly regarding pay reductions. Employers must understand the laws governing these practices.
  • Safety violations: Workers have a right to a healthy and safe workplace. They also can file complaints with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for serious safety violations.
  • Termination and contracts: Employment law helps address wrongful termination claims and governs how employers draft contracts, including nondisclosure agreements and other provisions.

These are just a few key areas that employment law addresses. Our experienced team can assist both employers and employees in exploring their legal options. We help employers take necessary steps to avoid any legal violations, but we can also assist employees who feel their rights have already been violated.

Solutions For Problems In Employment Law

Employment law for employers is often about preventing problems before they arise. Our lawyers serve mostly smaller to midsize businesses that want to avoid the distraction and expense of litigation.

We assist in developing policies and procedures while training managers to avoid behaviors that can be construed as discriminatory or create a hostile work environment.

We represent employers in both litigation and administrative inquiries. With some clients, we effectively serve as in-house counsel on human resources matters, addressing problems as they arise.

Employers constitute about one-fourth of our employment law clients.

Employment Law For Employees

Employment law for employees is a bigger part of our practice. We represent and litigate cases for employees who have been subject to discrimination and retaliation in the workplace.

We also negotiate and review employment contracts for executives and professionals, including representing employees in lawsuits brought to enforce noncompete and nonsolicitation agreements as well as trade secrets.

We advise employees regarding their rights under the FMLA, the FLSA, and other state and federal employment laws. Our clients include executives, managers, professionals, CPAs, physicians, and other health care providers and sales representatives.
