Overview
Laner Muchin attorneys have extensive experience in representing private and public sector employers in virtually every type of employment-related legal action. This includes litigation in state and federal courts as well as before local, state and federal agencies.
We also represent employers in employment-related claims they may bring against former employees and other companies - such as in non-compete litigation - as well as representing public sector clients in claims brought against labor unions. Our attorneys also have vast appellate experience in state and federal courts.
Regardless of the nature of the matter entrusted to us by our clients, our fundamental objective in every matter is to ascertain our clients' business goals and achieve them with a high degree of skill, efficiency and integrity. Sometimes that means obtaining a favorable verdict through trial. Other times, it means a cost-effective and rapid resolution of a claim before a legal action is ever filed.
Employment Practices Liability Insurance
Many of our clients have employment practices (EPLI) insurance policies that provide coverage for fees, damages and costs associated with the defense of a number of types of employment claims. The Firm has a long track record working with our clients and their respective carriers to successfully defend employment claims, and many of our attorneys have extensive experience working on such claims. Because of this, the leading EPLI providers have selected the Firm as panel counsel to defend claims brought against their insureds.
