Labor & Employment

Clients turn to Stoel Rives’ Labor & Employment group to navigate complex workplace challenges. We deliver high-quality representation, innovative solutions, and business-driven results. From high-stakes litigation to day-to-day counseling, we serve as trusted strategic advisors.

Our large team stands out for its full-service approach, providing advice and counsel, dispute resolution, labor representation, investigations, appeals, and training. We are particularly known for our depth in traditional labor law, handling the full spectrum of issues, from union campaigns and elections to collective bargaining, NLRB proceedings, arbitrations, and related disputes.

We are trusted with mission-critical matters involving novel theories, issues of first impression, and precedent-setting decisions. Our attorneys have extensive experience defending high-profile wage and hour class actions, litigating discrimination, retaliation, and non-compete claims, and conducting sensitive workplace investigations.

We bring significant experience in highly regulated industries, including healthcare, agribusiness, manufacturing, and technology. Our clients include leading brands and major employers across the West.
