Skilled Employment Law Attorneys

As employment issues grow more complex, competent and comprehensive legal advice becomes more and more essential. Today's employer is charged to comply with federal, state and local laws governing the workplace and the employer/employee relationship. The federal "alphabet" laws such as the ADA, the ADEA, the PDA and OSHA and their interrelation to Title VII places obligations on employers which may at times be conflicting.

The expansion of civil rights law has led to the development of a new area of practice referred to as Employer Liability. Cases of this nature include defense of employers in actions involving claims of wrongful discharge, defamation, improper drug testing, criminal conduct, and sexual preference issues. Our firm's active involvement in the evolution of Oklahoma civil rights law gives us a unique ability to representdefend clients in this burgeoning field of law.

Our goal is to provide proactive counsel to clients and to represent them in the inevitable claims that arise against even the most compliant, well-intentioned employer.

We are experienced in representing and counseling corporate officers and directors as well as insurers of public and private employers in employment-related disputes. We guide clients in developing and implementing selection, promotion, and termination policies. We defend the employer against claims of wrongful termination, sexual harassment, retaliatory discharge, age, and handicap discrimination. We also represent clients against individual and class-based claims of race, sex, religious and national origin discrimination in state and federal courts.
