Labor and Employment Law

At Liff, Walsh & Simmons, we represent entities and individuals in labor and employment matters through the entire lifecycle of the employment relationship.  We provide expert advice and counsel to help manage the intricacies of complying with the ever-changing rules that govern the American workplace, resolve disputes, and prepare our clients for the future of work.

To provide excellent representation, we recognize the importance of partnering with each of our clients to assess their unique labor and employment law needs.  Labor and employment issues are most often highly technical and fact specific.  We work with you to understand your specific situation and give you the tools you need to succeed.

Throughout the employment lifecycle, we work closely with our clients to set and manage expectations and avoid disputes wherever possible.  Some representative services we provide include:  employment contracts; employment policies and employee handbooks; classification of workers including independent contractor matters; wage and hour matters including overtime and prevailing wage; employee benefits; employee leave; executive compensation; employee performance; anti-discrimination and anti-harassment; workplace safety; immigration matters including E-Verify; joint employer issues; collective bargaining matters; and workplace privacy. But when a dispute arises, we are fully prepared to handle it—whether in arbitration, litigation, or before a government agency as appropriate.

We are also uniquely focused on preparing our clients for the future of work.  We understand the rapid-fire changes in the workplace, including the adoption of artificial intelligence and expansion of the gig economy, and assist with strategic planning and change management.
