About

Provided by Stoel Rives LLP

Clients look to Stoel Rives’ labor & employment group to handle their high-stakes employment litigation and rely on our attorneys as trusted advisors to navigate day-to-day challenges. Our large labor and employment team stands out for our full-service practice: advice and counsel, litigation, traditional labor, investigations, and appeals. We are also notable for our depth in highly regulated industry sectors including health care, agribusiness, manufacturing, and technology, and for representing prominent clients in significant matters.

We have worked on matters that involve novel theories, issues of first impression, and precedent-setting decisions, including successfully litigating the first claim arising out of Oregon’s COVID-19 vaccination requirement for health care workers.

Our team has been involved in high-profile work defending several significant wage and hour class actions, representing clients in high-stakes non-compete litigation, defending multiple employers in numerous grievances and litigation related to vaccine mandates, and conducting sensitive internal investigations. We have seen growth in FLSA class actions and unfair competition disputes.
