About
Provided by Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, PC
Our Michigan office specializes in all avenues of employment litigation, and handles significant audits and counselling issues for clients. The service industries have continued to be growing industry sectors for our office, as well as continued growth in manufacturing and private education representative engagements. The office has seen a growth in the areas of pay equity and OFCCP compliance, as well as an increased presence in labor law matters.
A distinct advantage we offer our clients is the ability to serve as internal or external general employment counsel seamlessly without the need to bring in any other firm. Our office regularly engages in such relationships with our clients in which an Ogletree Deakins attorney serves as the client’s on-site employment counsel, typically on an interim basis. This arrangement allows our clients to confidently retain our office to take care of its employment needs wherever they may arise, without the need to engage another law firm in another jurisdiction.
Our office has begun to takeover a larger share of certain clients’ work that was previously performed by other firms in Michigan. This growth is because of our ability to handle any client challenge in the labor and employment arenas, in just about any jurisdiction. Our vast resources and pooled experience is what gives us an edge over larger general practice and smaller labor and employment boutiques in our market.
