Labor & Employment
AEGIS attorneys offer a wide range of labor and employment services, representing both employers and employees in litigation, transactional work, contracts, prevention and compliance. Our expansive practice areas allow us to offer advice tailored to your business, combining labor and employment law with practical business advice. Our professionals can guide your business through the maze of federal, state and local employment legislation and regulations and work to proactively protect your business from costly employment litigation.
We also work collaboratively across practice areas to advise clients on the complexities of employee benefit law. Our labor and employment and tax attorneys work together to design, structure and implement employee benefit plans that minimize the risk of litigation and provide value for your business and employees. We work with your human resource department, in-house counsel and other benefit professionals to create cost-effective benefit solutions. We also regularly help clients navigate benefits issues like fiduciary duties and federal ERISA regulations.
Moreover, when you need advice on employment issues like hiring and termination, employee discipline, responding to harassment complaints, employee benefit issues or compliance with collective bargaining or union agreements, rest assured that AEGIS attorneys will respond promptly. Our attorneys offer practical advice to ensure compliance with the law and existing agreements and to help avoid conflicts.
AEGIS attorneys are well versed in anti-harassment and anti-discrimination laws and regularly represent clients in all stages of the administrative and litigation process for employment claims. Our attorneys regularly handle single and multiple plaintiff claims, including age, race and gender discrimination; disability discrimination; FLSA wage and hour compliance; “whistleblower protections;” unemployment compensation and employee benefits claims.
