Employment Law

When it comes to employment law, we represent clients through all phases and types of employment issues, ranging from counseling employers on employer and employee rights and benefits, and the development of employee handbooks and policies. It is our philosophy that the employer who best understands the law avoids the potential for disputes and litigation. Hanaway Ross also has attorneys who are expert in handling most types of employment litigation on behalf of both employers and employees, including claims of employment discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful discharge, wage and hour violations, entitlement to employee benefits, misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential information, noncompete agreements, and unfair competition.

We recognize that our challenging employment law practice is due entirely to clients willing to trust us with their most troubling and sensitive matters. Our job each day is to handle every matter in a way that justifies that client trust, and builds upon it. We know that sometimes a client is best served by comprehensive and vigorous litigation; and that at other times, a client needs a frank, early assessment that a difficult legal problem may be best addressed through a mutually-acceptable resolution and more sophisticated employment planning in the future. We are litigators, counselors, and planners interested in helping our clients flexibly manage all aspects of the employment relationship.
