Employers face many challenges in navigating the complex legal issues of labor and employment law. Wick Phillips provides advice, counsel, and representation in all facets of employment law. Almost every aspect of a business is impacted by workplace laws, including:

  • Recruiting, hiring and terminating employees
  • Policies, procedures, training, and disciplinary actions
  • Privacy and confidentiality issues
  • Workplace investigations
  • Responding to unfair competition and predatory hiring practices
  • Compliance with all local, state and federal agencies, such as Department of Labor, Internal Revenue Service, Immigration and Naturalization Services, Texas Workforce Commission and many others

We  regularly represent clients through all phases and types of employment litigation, ranging from defending individual charges of discrimination to class and collective actions. The firm represents clients in:

  • Defense of administrative charges of discrimination before state and federal agencies
  • Employment litigation in courts throughout the U.S.
  • Handbook and employee policy drafting, review and training
  • Labor Disputes, Unfair Labor Practice charges, and Labor Arbitrations
  • Management Training in all areas of employment law, including recruiting, discipline, performance reviews and anti-harassment/discrimination
  • Restrictive Covenant Litigation – enforcement of non-competition agreements, defense of misappropriation claims
  • Strategic employment counseling regarding all aspects of the employment relationship
  • Wage and Hour collective actions defense work
  • Workplace Investigations – including those conducted by the Department of Labor, Department of Justice, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, or other state or federal agencies

We recognize that a client’s time and resources are often better spent on employee training and other preventative practices, rather than defending an employment decision in litigation. We apply that principle daily in service to our clients with a goal of providing the most value to each representation.
