In representing employers/management, Peterpaul Law counsels and defends employers and businesses in all industries and of all sizes with regard to all aspects of Labor & Employment Law. Our primary focus in working with employers/management is to reduce the risk of claims and employment litigation by ensuring that our clients’ employment-related policies and practices are up to date and in compliance with state and federal law. We conduct audits of human resources procedures, negotiate collective bargaining agreements, conduct workplace investigations, and draft employee handbooks, employment contracts, restrictive covenants/non-compete agreements and severance agreements. We also conduct anti-harassment training and counsel employers on issues such as handling requests for leave, and best practices for everything from hiring through termination. Through such preventative counseling, Peterpaul Law can assist employers in significantly reducing the likelihood of expensive and protracted employment litigation.
