Labor and employment law

Human Resources and Employment Law

Our attorneys have represented clients in a broad range of labor and employment matters. We draw from that experience to help clients address labor and employment issues that arise in large corporations, school districts, small firms, sole proprietorships and other entities.

We provide training to managers, human resource professionals and supervisors on a wide variety of employment and labor topics. Our attorneys prepare and review personnel manuals to address issues that are likely to arise.

When employees make allegations of age, race, religious or other discrimination, our attorneys help investigate and develop appropriate responses. We are experienced in defending claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act and Family Medical Leave Act, sexual harassment issues and wrongful discharge. We also have extensive experience in advising employers on union matters.

When clients are involved in employment litigation, we are ready to represent them in developing a strategy and handling cases in federal and state courts throughout Kentucky. We also regularly represent clients before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Kentucky Commission on Human Rights, the Kentucky Labor Cabinet and the Kentucky Unemployment Insurance Commission. In addition, our attorneys represent employers before the National Labor Relations Board in matters involving labor unions and collective bargaining.
