EMPLOYMENT LAW
We Provide Skilled Representation and Advice for the Workplace
​
Employment law covers a complex regulatory network that controls how employers must treat employees, former employees, and applicants for employment. We counsel, not only executives seeking advice about employment packages but companies attempting to manage the employment process. When the need arises, we provide skilled representation in employment-related litigation. We have significant experience interpreting and applying state and federal statutes and case law in areas involving:
• Employment discrimination (age, race, sex, religious affiliation, disability)
• Sexual harassment
• Employee benefits
• Whistleblower cases
• Wrongful/retaliatory termination
• Drug testing
• Employee privacy
• Employment contracts
• Workplace violence and safety
• Breach of non-compete and confidentiality agreements
• Wage and hour law violations
• Labor law
• Business torts
• Contracts
• Deceptive trade practices
Many of our cases require the application of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA); Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA); Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN); Federal Employer's Liability Act (FELA); Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA), and administrative claims filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the Wisconsin Equal Rights Division (ERD). We encourage the use of, and have successfully utilized facilitative mediation and arbitration to minimize the time and expense related to resolving employment disputes.
