Employment Law for Employers
Dalton & Finegold's employment practice offers day-to-day counseling and training aimed at keeping employers out of the courtroom. Our clients receive practical, business-oriented advice that helps employers comply with federal, state and local laws governing:We also draft and review employment policies and handbooks, and present training to manager and employee groups on a variety of topics, including harassment and discrimination, diversity, interviewing and hiring, the Family and Medical Leave Act and other leave of absence requirements. In addition, we draft and review employment-related documents like offer letters, non-competition and confidentiality agreements, employment agreements, and severance agreements.
Sometimes, litigation by employees or former employees is inevitable. In those cases, our employment attorneys are prepared to investigate and defend claims of discrimination and harassment based on sex, race, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion, national origin and other protected classes as well as claims of retaliation, wrongful termination, Sarbanes-Oxley whistle-blowing, breach of contract, and public accommodation discrimination.
