Labor & Employment

About

Provided by Smith, Anderson, Blount, Dorsett, Mitchell & Jernigan, LLP

The intersection of business, employment matters and the law is complex and often difficult to navigate. We approach this challenge with an effort to gain a thorough understanding of your culture and objectives. We bring a deep understanding of the law and a wealth of experience regarding its real-world application. We operate as an employment and labor law boutique within a robust, full-service law firm. 

Our experience with a wide range of employment, labor and human resources issues enables us to work with our clients to assist them in building and maintaining an employer-of-choice reputation. We do this while minimizing the burden of regulatory requirements and the distractions of regulatory investigations and audits, employee disputes and union organizing. 

In addition to compliance and risk-management counseling, we develop and conduct training programs for human resources professionals and line managers, offering a range of complementary compliance-support services. 

When employers encounter litigation relating to employment discrimination, wrongful discharge or other employment-related issues, and when complaint investigations and compliance audits arise, we represent them with early risk assessment, dispute resolution services and trial advocacy.
