Successfully navigating today’s labor and employment law environment can be a risky proposition. The issues are constantly evolving, as are federal, state and local laws that impact your business.
What applies in one state may not hold true in another. The work rules and regulations you operated under last year are likely very different today. We understand how easy it can be to fall behind. That is why we pride ourselves on our ability to stay abreast of trends and changes in the law and provide effective advice and counsel on day-to-day issues addressed by human resource professionals.
Clark Baird Smith LLP attorneys represent private sector employers in federal and state equal employment opportunity agencies to defend against allegations of discrimination on the basis of race, sex, national origin, age, marital status, pregnancy, sexual orientation, disability, religion, and other forms of prohibited discrimination. The Firm also has substantial experience in defending clients against wrongful discharge, breach-of-contract, Family & Medical Leave Act and other employment claims, including Section 1981 and 1983 constitutional actions.
Our attorneys have extensive experience with traditional labor relations matters involving union organizing efforts, bargaining unit formation, unfair labor practice proceedings, collective bargaining, Section 301 actions, arbitration proceedings of all types, strikes, picketing, and alternative dispute proceedings.
Our experience enables us to provide our clients with proactive and practical strategies to help them successfully manage a myriad of employment issues. We regularly provide advice and counsel to private sector employers on various labor relations issues such as labor contract negotiations, effective contract administration and grievance handling, grievance arbitrations, impasse contingency planning and resolution, and decertification petitions.
We have represented clients before the National Labor Relations Board and in federal and state courts, as well as before mediators and arbitrators.
