Employment and Labor Counseling and Litigation
The procedures and decisions of a human resources department are perhaps the most important in a given business. Any task performed by human resources carries some amount of legal risk. With the proper employment & labor counseling & litigation plans in place, though, you can significantly reduce the chance of a legal issue arising.
In order to avoid liability, you need to have the ability to navigate a complicated area of business practices. Our attorneys at Santomassimo Davis LLP can partner with you to develop proper human resources protocol and training. This can include:
- Counsel on and resolve difficult employment disputes for clients in matters alleging workplace harassment, discrimination, and wrongful termination, and defend or prosecute related litigations
- Counsel clients regarding reductions in force and plant closures, including WARN Act compliance
- Conduct sensitive internal investigations
- Preparation of employment agreements and related documents
