Our experience
It’s no stretch to say the lawyers at Clark Baird Smith LLP helped write the book on modern labor relations law. Our most senior partner, Ted Clark, wrote the most definitive textbook on public sector labor law – one that is still used in law schools today.
We have direct experience working at the National Labor Relations Board and our attorneys have authored or edited several books for the American Bar Association and other organizations, as well as authored hundreds of articles on labor and employment law. Our attorneys have taught labor and employment law courses at Northwestern University and have lectured at many other schools across the country. Three of our senior lawyers are Fellows in the College of Labor and Employment Lawyers. We are exceedingly active in various American Bar Association labor and employment law committees, and we serve as general counsel to state and national employer associations.
Our attorneys have represented hundreds of municipalities, units of state and federal government, and private sector corporations and entities in Illinois and throughout the nation on matters ranging from collective bargaining and interest arbitration to grievance arbitration proceedings, disciplinary hearings, EEO charges, day-to-day employee counseling issues, investigations, and trials. We have also successfully handled numerous bargaining unit petitions and unfair labor practice hearings. In addition, we regularly advise our clients on FLSA and wage and hour matters, ADA and FMLA, pension issues, and engage in all types of EEO and labor relations training.
