Avoiding employment litigation is a top priority for most employers and the attorneys in our group are experienced in providing advice and counseling that minimizes the risk of litigation. However, even though we frequently advise clients on preventive and cost-effective alternatives, litigation is still an unavoidable reality in the business world and litigation defense is a significant part of our practice.

Our attorneys are experienced in:
  • Representation of management in labor and employment disputes.
  • Representing employers in both public and private sectors in the areas of employment matters.
  • Representation of employers before both Federal and State employment agencies in employment discrimination matters.
  • Advising employers on discharging employees and representation of employers accused of wrongfully discharging their employees. 

In the area of employment regulations, our attorneys counsel employers on federal and state minimum wage and overtime laws, New York State Labor Law, and general regulations regarding employment hours, conditions and pay.  We also represent employers facing charges with the State and Federal Departments of Labor that allege a violation of any of those laws or regulations.
