When Does an Employer Need an Employment Lawyer?

In today’s climate, frivolous employment lawsuits that allege unlawful treatment are more common than ever. When an employee is terminated, demoted, or receives a reduction in pay due to poor job performance, they may file a claim for wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, or retaliation. Lost wages and bruised egos can compel people to behave in unprecedented ways. If an employee or past employee is claiming that you acted unlawfully, we can help.

Business owners shouldn’t be reactive; when it comes to protecting your company’s reputation and bottom line, proactive planning is key. As they say—the best defense is offense. For this reason, we focus our efforts on working with employers before disputes escalate to the point of requiring litigation.
