Protecting Your InterestsThe recent explosion of employment-related lawsuits—and the corresponding increase in laws and regulations—has greatly affected the employment relationship and created a need for employers to have access to the skills of experienced employment litigators to meet these challenges.The need for the involvement of experienced legal counsel at the very outset of an employee complaint is critical to your defense, especially in this area of legal practice which is constantly evolving as new laws are enacted and new cases make their way through the courts and administrative agencies. Your best defense may hinge on the management of an employee complaint at the very point in time when it is made! Attorneys in the Hodgson Russ Employment Litigation Practice Group, who generally represent management only, regularly provide counsel on every aspect of the employment relationship.
