  I counsel clients on day-to-day personnel issues including employment policies, discrimination laws, wage and hour issues, personnel administration, employee handbooks, traditional labor law and employment litigation. My employment practice includes the negotiation and drafting of employment contracts, handbooks, and non-competition and confidentiality agreements. I assist employers in the implementation and application of employment terminations, reductions-in-force, and plant shutdowns. I have litigated, arbitrated and mediated numerous cases in state and federal courts as well as numerous federal and state agencies including the EEOC, MDCR, NLRB, MERC, OFCCP, OSHA, MIOSHA, USDOL, MDOL, STC, UIA and others.
