About
Provided by Lowenstein Sandler LLP
Our Employment Counseling & Litigation Practice Group helps businesses identify and manage their compliance and employment risks. We serve as legal partners and advisors to companies ranging from startups to global brands, including Fortune 500 companies, privately held corporations, life sciences and pharmaceutical companies, and private equity firms.
By counseling on preventive strategies–such as reasonable accommodation, proper documentation, and progressive discipline–and providing training programs that reinforce company policies, we position our clients to avoid litigation. By helping our clients address their most sensitive employment challenges, we effectively enhance and maintain their hard-earned reputations and protect their brands.
When disputes are unavoidable, we aggressively defend clients against employee claims of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful discharge, and other workplace claims related to wage and hour, family and medical leave, and employee privacy violations, as well as employee benefits. We have an outstanding success record in representing clients against employees and competitors in matters involving restrictive covenant breaches, misuse of confidential information and trade secrets, employee dishonesty and disloyalty, and contract disputes.
