Overview
Laner Muchin has been engaged in representing public and private sector employers in collective bargaining for over 70 years, and our negotiators have countless years of cumulative bargaining experience. Typically, we act as the chief spokesperson for our clients at the bargaining table.
Our role in the bargaining process includes assisting our clients in researching and developing information, creating and implementing bargaining strategies, drafting proposals and agreements, assisting with employee communications and public relations issues. In those extremely rare instances where the bargaining process results in a work stoppage, we work hand-in-hand with our clients to help keep their operations running smoothly and minimize the impact on their bottom lines.
Our goal is always to help bring about a prompt resolution without adverse consequences to employee relations. Over the years, the Firm has developed outstanding working relationships with every major union, both locally and across the nation.
