Labor & Employment

Perez Morris attorneys are the employment choice of counsel by many organizations across a wide variety of industries in the U.S. today including but not limited to: Aviation, Automotive, Food & Restaurant, Financial Services, Retail, Health Care, Transportation/Logistics, Manufacturing and Higher Education.

Despite an organization’s best efforts, it may still find itself the subject of a discrimination charge, lawsuit, or a government inquiry or audit. We handle these matters on a national basis, from the smallest audit inquiry, to complex federal court litigation. We understand the nuances of state enforcement agencies and pay close attention to the form and local practice standards to ensure compliance and the best possible chance at a successful outcome. We prepare well-investigated administrative charge responses, including thorough analyses and application of the law not only to dissuade the investigator from issuing an adverse decision but also to demonstrate to the Charging Party and any counsel who may be retained that we are prepared to defend the claim to full resolution.

We aggressively defend our clients in employment matters but also take the time at the outset of our relationship to listen and to understand their business objectives and needs. We ensure compliance with state and federal employment laws and educate our clients on the latest developments in the employment landscape that may affect their business. Clients regularly request that we: review and draft employee handbooks and employment policies; design and conduct management and employee training; and investigate claims of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. When needed, we zealously litigate on behalf of our clients. Our commitment to our clients keeps our relationships strong, and our long-time partnerships enduring.
