 If
litigation does arise, Anderson Kill provides cost-effective,
aggressive, and result-oriented representation backed by a wealth of
expertise. Our attorneys have significant experience in the entire range
of employment and labor litigation matters including substantial jury
trial backgrounds. Some of our more frequent representations involve the
defense of individual employment discrimination suits arising under
federal, state, and local discrimination laws including claims based on
disability, race, religion, age, national origin, retaliation, sex,
sexual harassment, and sexual preference. Anderson Kill’s attorneys are
experienced in major class actions arising under various employment
discrimination laws, including all aspects of complex discovery
proceedings, the use of statistical proof, and the retention,
preparation, and cross-examination of statisticians, labor economists,
and other experts.
Anderson Kill also represents employers in issues with former employees
related to confidentiality and agreements not to compete, the whole
range of “employment-at-will” issues, as well as employment-related tort
claims including defamation and invasion-of-privacy claims that may grow
out of drug-testing programs or investigations of employee misconduct.
The firm’s attorneys are also well versed in the intricacies of the Fair
Labor Standards Act and parallel state statutory wage and hour laws. Our
firm has negotiated settlements of alleged minimum wage, overtime pay,
and child labor violations, and when favorable settlements have not been
forthcoming have gone on to litigate such disputes in federal and state
courts. We have also represented employers in arbitration, mediation,
and other forms of alternate dispute resolution.
Finally, Anderson Kill attorneys have represented management before the
National Labor Relations Board in union election proceedings and unfair
labor practice cases, as well as in a substantial number of grievance
and labor arbitration proceedings relating to alleged violations of
collective bargaining agreements.
