“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” – Benjamin Franklin

The attorneys at HBD understand the importance of protecting both employers and employees. Whether it be an issue regarding eligibility for medical leave or an employee’s “fitness for duty,” it’s important to handle employer/employee situations carefully and with an eye on legal concerns.

One way to prevent problems from arising is to thoroughly train all decision-makers. This provides your organization someone to deal with routine employment matters. And when properly trained, these decision-makers can recognize situations that require more in-depth analysis. When these more serious situations arise, they will know to seek counsel.

HBD’s attorneys can train on such topics as:

• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
• Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
• Sexual harassment
• Sexual discrimination
• Wage and hour compliance

HBD can also help employers to form contractual relationships with their employees.

When your organization is served with a lawsuit, it is imperative that you respond quickly by retaining legal counsel who will promptly and accurately argue your case. The attorneys at HBD will provide clients with advice that is sensitive to the bottom line and that will help to achieve the best possible outcome in the case.
