EMPLOYMENT LAW

From proactive workplace counseling and policy development to negotiation, mediation, and litigation, we provide comprehensive legal counsel in every aspect of employment law.

Employment laws continue to evolve, creating new challenges and significant potential risk for employers. Guza | Lorenz | Carl stays abreast of changing state and federal employment laws, proactively researching new developments so our clients don't have to.

While we are fully prepared to litigate employment disputes, we also provide comprehensive risk management advice and training designed to minimize the need for litigation.

For business entities, the best way to avoid litigation is to address employment issues appropriately from the beginning. We work with employers to develop sound policies and procedures that help manage business risk, reduce liability, and avoid unnecessary disputes. Our team has extensive experience successfully defending and prosecuting complex employment claims.

Our employment law services include:

  • Wrongful termination claims

  • Claims involving race, national origin, gender, pregnancy, age, and disability discrimination

  • Claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)

  • Claims under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

We also advise clients on the creation and implementation of company policies, procedure manuals, employee handbooks, recordkeeping, hiring practices, and compliance with state and federal employment, discrimination, wage, and hour laws.

Employment law can be complex. The attorneys at Guza | Lorenz | Carl understand the legal challenges employers face and provide practical guidance to help organizations reduce risk, maintain compliance, and avoid costly disputes.
