We also have employee benefits counsel in response to client demand – the only one of the three international labor and employment boutiques in Birmingham with full-time employee benefits counsel.

Our lawyers’ experience ranges from six to more than 50 years, allowing efficient and appropriate-level staffing. We are also known for efficient use of paralegals for investigative and analytical work and for employing some of the best trained and experienced paralegals anywhere.

Our affirmative action/government contracting practice is unique in Alabama. We have lawyer and non-lawyer professionals (including data analysts) in Birmingham who provide affirmative action services to government contractors. No other firm in Alabama has this capability.
