Employment Litigation

Overview

Even with the best planning, employment-related claims can arise. When they do, we work with employers and human resource professionals to develop the most advantageous response.

We have successfully represented employers in state and federal courts and before administrative agencies such as the National Labor Relations Board, the Michigan Employment Relations Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Michigan Department of Civil Rights, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Michigan Unemployment Agency, the Workers’ Compensation Bureau, and MIOSHA.
