Seasoned AP&S attorneys provide our clients—both public and private-sector employers, both unionized and union-free—with savvy and knowledgeable day-to-day employment counseling, helping them comply with complex laws and avoid litigation by dealing with employees effectively, fairly and legally.

But we’re also deft at efficiently handling collective bargaining and National Labor Relations Board matters; defending against unfair labor practice and other charges under FLSA, Title VII, ADA, FMLA, OSHA and other laws; representing employers before government agencies and tribunals; and dealing with virtually every aspect of employment relationships.

Proactive, professional, personable and responsive, we work hand-in-hand with employers to anticipate and short-circuit problems before they mount, drafting smart policies and useful employee handbooks, counseling employers on various federal and state statutes, conducting management and employee training, assisting in force reductions and plant closings, and negotiating and drafting employment agreements.
