Employment and Labor

Employment and Labor Law

We provide more than legal guidance to our clients. Our Omaha-based employment attorneys are also active partners in formulating solutions that meet our clients’ short- and long-term needs based on their specific businesses.

We know that response time can be critical in the employment area. A termination decision or disciplinary matter may arise unexpectedly and need to be addressed immediately. We make ourselves available by office phone, cell phone, email, fax, and through our assistants. Clients will always receive a return call within the same day, or know when to expect one.

The depth and expertise of our Employment and Labor team enables us to effectively and efficiently advise our clients with respect to the diverse circumstances they encounter when managing their workforces.

Our services include:

• Consultation and Support
• Protection of Confidential and Proprietary Information
• Wage and Hour Issues
• Drug Testing
• Administrative Proceedings and Litigation
• Alternative Dispute Resolution
• Union Organization
• Employee Handbooks
• Risk Management Training
• Employee Benefits and ERISA
• Executive Compensation Agreements
• Immigration
• Independent Contractor Matters
• Workers’ Compensation
• FLSA, FMLA, ADA and other federal and state law expertise
• Employee Training
• Workplace Investigations
• Severance Agreements

Employment, labor and benefits can change dramatically through court decisions and legislative changes. Our lawyers constantly monitor these changes, so that we can provide employers with the most up-to-date and relevant information through monthly NewsFlashes, quarterly webinars, periodic round table sessions, and an annual Employment Law Symposium in Omaha on various employment law issues.
