Labor and employment laws affect the entire legal relationship between employers and employees, from the initial application and interview process expanding into every aspect of daily operations, including job descriptions, wages, promotions, reviews, terminations, benefits, mergers and acquisitions, and the successful resolution of disputes alleging discrimination, harassment and unfair labor practices. Because the myriad of laws that apply to the labor and employment relationship exist at all levels of government -- federal, state, county and even city -- making sense of these often conflicting legal requirements is more of a challenge than ever for employers. Knowing what to do and when to do it is The O’Neal Firm’s core competency.
