About

Provided by Benesch

Benesch’s Labor & Employment Practice Group provides a full range of services to clients on a national basis. From counseling clients on daily employment issues to handling the most complex of litigation, our attorneys have the experience, skills and commitment to service your needs to minimize the risks inherent in today’s workplace.

Our attorneys are keenly aware that client representation means not only providing the highest quality, results-oriented legal services, but doing so in a manner which is cost effective and consistent with the client’s circumstances and goals. We work with clients at the outset of each matter to make sure we understand the desired end result and that the client understands what will likely be involved in obtaining that result. This process continually repeats throughout the representation. In short, we recognize that sound business judgment is every bit as important as sound legal judgment.

Below are the types of matters our Labor & Employment Practice Group attorneys typically handle:

  • Employment litigation
  • ​Labor-management relations and collective bargaining
  • Client counseling
  • OSHA
  • Workplace safety, workers compensation and unemployment compensation
  • Immigration law
