Employment Litigation, Employee Law & Dispute Lawyers
Orlando, Orange County and Central Florida
Businesses face increasing external challenges from global competition, an unpredictable economy, and rising costs. Internally, employers also need to concern themselves with employment legislation designed to protect workers. In this environment, employers often find themselves needing representation to defend against:
- Claims of employment discrimination (including age, gender, disability, race and religious discrimination)
- Employment-related class action lawsuits
- Breach of contract claims
- Claims under the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and ERISA
- Enforcement of non-compete agreements, non-solicitation covenants and non-disclosure agreements
- Enforcement of employee duty of loyalty claims
- Wrongful termination
- Whistleblower claims
Often the outcome of litigating an employment claim can be the difference between a successful business and complete failure. Employees have the right of fair treatment and the FLSA, ERISA and other legislation has been designed to protect them; however, employers also deserve rights and effective legal representation.
Our Capabilities:
In many cases, strong employment litigation defense actually starts with prevention. Avoiding employment related pitfalls is the key to minimizing claims.
