Labor & Employment

About

Provided by McCarter & English, LLP

As business realities and workplace legal requirements evolve, our labor and employment lawyers help employers understand their compliance obligations and make informed decisions about managing their workforces that help drive growth.

We help employers stay ahead of potential issues affecting productivity and company reputation. We assist them in developing policies and procedures designed to prevent litigation but, when necessary, defend their interests in litigation ranging from single-plaintiff cases to nationwide collective and class actions. We help employers craft agreements vital to recruiting and retaining key employees and to protecting their proprietary assets and investments in employees.

Our lawyers keep clients aware of new developments in the law—informally and through client alerts and educational trainings. They author publications, such as Connecticut Employer Law and the Employer’s Guide to Union Organizing Campaigns, and write or contribute to articles on key topics of importance to employers today.

Our lawyers have become long-time advisors to many of their clients who appreciate our ability to deliver practical advice and effectively resolve disputes quickly and cost-efficiently. These clients also rely on the resources we can tap into at a multi-practice firm and our skill at spotting issues that may impact their business in other areas of law. We collaborate with colleagues throughout the firm to deliver comprehensive solutions to clients’ business needs.
