Our Work – FOR EMPLOYERS

We make it a priority to understand our clients’ business so that we can serve as both legal advisors and as strategic business counselors, letting clients optimize opportunities and mitigate risk. Our extensive experience representing employers in a wide variety of industries, from manufacturing and renewable energy to retail and professional service firms, allows us to understand the workforce issues of large national employers as well as the specific concerns of middle-market and small businesses. Our comprehensive employment law practice ensures compliance with the increasingly complex body of local, state and federal laws that govern the workplace. We regularly advise businesses regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), wage and hour issues under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the WARN Act, and all related state claims, including the Massachusetts Payment of Wages Act.  In addition, we assist with claims of wrongful discharge, discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and claims seeking to enforce confidentiality, non-compete, and non-solicitation agreements.

Our firm prepares and advises management with regard to compliance with anti-discrimination statutes, regulations, and ordinances of federal and state governments, employee handbooks and policies, executive agreements, trade secrets, non-competition and non-solicitation agreements, severance agreements, and workforce adjustment issues. We always use best practices so that you can maintain a fair and compliant workplace with respect to workplace issues. Through careful planning and training support, we work with our clients to create effective and flexible workplace policies that prevent problems before they begin.
