Employment & Labour Law

We provide employment and HR counseling for forward-thinking businesses, and help them effectively manage disputes and litigation that may arise. We take a highly proactive approach to counseling employers, helping them manage their workforce, develop their HR policies, anticipate areas of concern, and avoid the issues that frequently arise in the employer-employee relationship. In fact, to obtain the most defensible position against litigation, many of our clients seek our advice before their HR decisions are made, and regularly look to us to train their managers and employees on issues such as harassment, diversity and workplace discrimination, performance management, and wage and hour compliance. Regardless of preventive measures taken, it’s not uncommon for employers to be sued. When that does happen, we strive to minimize the dispute’s impact and resolve it expeditiously, often through the use an early case assessment which covers the merits of case, potential damages, insurance coverage issues and a litigation strategy should the case proceed.

Our attorneys can help you design, create and implement executive compensation and employee benefit programs that are tailor-made for your business. We can also ensure you maintain compliance with the laws and regulations governing employee benefits.
