Employment Law

Our employment law group has experience with a wide array of employment issues, both in resolving and litigating employment disputes and in the use of "preventive law" to help employers avoid those disputes.

preventive measures

We help clients adopt and revise employee manuals and policies covering issues such as drug testing, electronic communications, AIDS, and privacy issues. We also assist business owners and human resource managers by guiding them through issues regarding hiring practices, employee reviews, discipline, compensation, overtime, and terminations.

employment disputes

Even the most effective prevention measures cannot totally inoculate employers from controversy, disputes and litigation. When employment disputes arise, we aggressively represent and protect employers in resolving and litigating employee claims, including:

  • claims of wrongful termination, sexual harassment, etc.;

  • proceedings before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the Civil Rights Division of the Arizona Attorney General's Office;

  • proceedings before other regulatory bodies that govern employment matters, such as the U.S. Department of Labor, OSHA, AOSA and NLRB; and

  • employment claims related to state and federal legislation, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, Pregnancy Discrimination Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, Family Medical Leave Act, Employee Polygraph Protection Act, Arizona's wage statute, and the the Arizona Employment Protection Act.
