Labor Relations

Our roots lie in the representation of employers in traditional labor matters. For over thirty years, we have counseled clients and trained managers on how to maintain a union-free environment and have worked successfully to combat union petitions. For unionized employers, we handle arbitrations, collective bargaining, contract administration and injunction proceedings.

We regularly:

• Represent management in union organization campaigns, unfair labor practice cases, grievances and arbitrations
• Practice in front of the NLRB in connection with administrative charges
• Argue labor cases before the U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals
• Team with clients to develop union-free strategies
• Negotiate collective bargaining agreements
• Advise employers in disputes arising under collective bargaining agreements
• Prepare strike plans and procedures to continue operations during work stoppages, picketing and strikes
• Advise unionized employers regarding plant closings, relocations or subcontracting
