Labor & Employment

Labor law focuses on the relationship between employees and unions under the National Labor Relations Act. Employment law addresses relations between employers and individual employees, including charges of discrimination.

Regulated working hours, minimum wage, child labor restrictions and laws governing safe work conditions are all examples of Wage & Hour Law and OSHA Law. 

From  large  organizations  with  complex  issues,  to small  or mid -sized  companies  in need  of employee relation matters, May Oberfell Lorber takes a practical, relationship-based  approach to resolving your labor, employment law and human resource counselling needs.
