Provided by Friday, Eldredge & Clark, LLP
Friday, Eldredge & Clark (FEC) has deep experience in multiple industries and strong capabilities to advise employers in such business sectors as health care, transportation, telecommunications, retailing, hospitality services and manufacturing. Our advice to our clients is based on years of experience and our thorough understanding of the business landscape. We stay abreast of local, state, and national developments to advise you on labor and employment issues in a holistic context rather than a strictly legal one. We are active in community organizations such as chambers of commerce, local, statewide and national human resources associations, and diversity commissions. Areas of service include employment litigation, education, immigration, employer compliance, covenants not to compete, workers' compensation, trade secrets, wage and hour, proactive counseling, labor relations, management representation, EOCC compliance, OSHA and discrimination.
FEC’s Labor and Employment Practice Group was selected to join the Employment Law Alliance (ELA) as the exclusive member for Arkansas in early 2021.
The Labor and Employment attorneys are known for being thought leaders in their fields and we work daily to keep our clients and the general HR community well informed of the workplace laws. This includes writing articles, speaking at seminars and hosting webinars.
