Labor/ Union Relations

We are also active in the union arena, representing management in both union matters and union avoidance. We like to help employers do things right and efficiently so employees do not feel that they need protection from their employer. A notable portion of our clients have union represented workforces, thus we are regularly involved in labor arbitrations, NLRB administrative matters (including unfair labor practice charges, unit clarifications, and union certification and decertification elections), collective bargaining or union negotiations, as well as general advice and counsel on business decisions (e.g., subcontracting, reductions in force, changes in operational measures, purchases and divestitures, etc.).
