Overview

Effectively managing a productive workforce in the face of increasing union organizing efforts and expanded employee protections by the NLRB poses unprecedented challenges.

Our dedicated team brings extensive experience in counseling and representing employers in various facets, including union organizing drives, collective bargaining, labor contract administration, decertification proceedings, and unfair labor practices proceedings before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB).

Our lawyers have served as chief spokespersons in collective bargaining negotiations and provided invaluable behind-the-scenes counsel to employers managing their own negotiations. From critiquing union proposals and drafting employer proposals to handling communications with employees and the media, we offer comprehensive support. Additionally, we provide adept representation at mediation/conciliation and offer legal support during labor board hearings.

While negotiation and mediation often resolve disputes, our lawyers bring significant experience in matters requiring arbitration, unfair labor practice proceedings, injunction proceedings, grievance and interest arbitration proceedings, union decertification efforts, and appellate work related to NLRB decision enforcement. Our multifaceted approach ensures that employers receive the tailored legal representation needed to address the complexities of labor relations successfully.
