Labor and Employment

Employers in many business sectors (including health care, professional and financial services, manufacturing, construction, transportation, government, and energy) rely on Krieg DeVault to identify problems that can develop into employment disputes, and to effectively prevent or resolve them. Our labor and employment lawyers craft customized solutions to ensure compliance with national and state labor laws, minimize workplace disputes, and maximize strategic advantage if litigation is necessary. We pride ourselves on responsiveness, so we are on-call to handle urgent issues involving sexual harassment, termination, or employment eligibility. To assist with preventing potential problems, we advise on personnel policies, draft employee handbooks, conduct internal investigations, and train supervisors on compliance responsibilities. When necessary, we are strong advocates for our clients in state and federal trial and appellate courts, before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Indiana Civil Rights Commission, the Indiana and United States Departments of Labor, the Illinois Department of Human Rights, and other administrative agencies.
