About
Provided by Dentons
Dentons' employment and labor lawyers are renowned for their pragmatic, business-centric counseling across the full range of workforce-related issues, as well their regular and successful representation of management in all types of employment disputes and litigated matters. We have defended management against claims of discrimination and retaliation, represented management and senior executives in restrictive covenant and trade secret matters, represented management in wage-and-hour disputes, and defended fiduciaries against claims brought under the federal ERISA statute.
We provide a broad range of non-litigation advice, including:
• Drafting employment handbooks, policies and contracts
• Dealing with “problem employees”
• Conducting internal corporate investigations
• Anti-harassment and sensitivity training
• Business immigration
• Union-related issues
• Mergers & acquisitions, reductions in force and other business activities
• Data privacy and cybersecurity
While litigation may be a necessary component of a dispute resolution strategy, it is only one of the tools we use to resolve disputes. As the use of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) has grown, so too has our practice, and the sophistication of the processes we employ. Dentons has long been at the forefront of ADR use, investing significantly in training our lawyers and accruing extensive experience in arbitration, mediation, conciliation and settlement negotiation, including as settlement counsel.
