Understanding Labor and

Employment Law

One of the fastest growing areas of litigation is employment law. Over the past few years, employers have seen an increase in lawsuits brought by former employees including claims for harassment, discrimination and violations of various state and federal laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Family and Medical Leave Act. In this seminar we discuss employee hiring, employee performance, documentation and planning for smooth transitions. We offer guidelines for maintaining a culture of employee awareness.
