Labor & Employment

Now more than ever, businesses must navigate complex statutory and regulatory requirements in their daily employment decisions, as well as build a robust employment infrastructure to protect their confidential information and trade secrets. To help corporate employers, the attorneys in the Sills Cummis & Gross Employment and Labor Practice Group partner with businesses to provide timely and helpful guidance, while constantly monitoring the dynamic and rapidly changing employment and labor arena. As counselors, the Group’s primary goal is to reduce overall risk with regards to employees, but when disputes or confidentiality/contract breaches occur, they work hands-on with management to professionally analyze the legal risks, project realistic costs, and assess all options. When litigation is called for, the Group’s attorneys aggressively and expeditiously defend and prosecute claims for clients.

The Sills Cummis interdisciplinary Employment and Labor Practice Group provides the highest level of employment counseling, training, and management-side litigation to national, international, and small business clients. They routinely defend clients in federal, state, and appellate courts, and before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and all federal and state administrative agencies. The Group also assists with compliance audits and investigations, defense of trade secrets, and traditional labor law representation.
