About
Provided by Thompson Coburn LLP
Our labor and employment lawyers implement workplace solutions that ensure compliance, minimize litigation risks, and keep businesses thriving. While we offer just-in-time guidance and strategic advice to help clients avoid risks, we are also skilled advocates with proven litigation experience. Our L&E team includes a deep bench of seasoned trial lawyers who have taken cases to verdict in state and federal courts and successfully handled matters before administrative bodies and in arbitration and mediation. We also anticipate and address potential issues before they become problems, saving time, money, and headaches.
Clients are drawn to our proven track record in labor and employment counseling and litigation, hiring us for traditional labor matters, union organizing and elections, wage and hour class litigation, noncompete and restrictive covenant litigation, workplace accommodations, policy drafting and training, business immigration matters, and discrimination, harassment and retaliation claims.
We review agreements, handbooks and policies to ensure compliance and propose revisions and additions. We also provide training and counseling services and on-demand advice on discipline, discharge, leave of absence, and accommodation issues and navigating company downsizings, including federal WARN Act and analogous state law compliance.
