INTELLIGENT AND SOPHISTICATED EMPLOYMENT LAW SERVICES AND IMMIGRATION LAW SERVICES IN PENNSYLVANIA AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

Employment Law Services

For Employees

We represent individual employees bringing claims of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation and related claims against private and government employers on the bases of race, color, national origin, sex, gender, family status and responsibilities, disability, request for and use of protected leave, religion, sect, political affiliation, military service, and genetic information. Our services are client-centered and trauma-informed. We are unyielding about the rights employees have to work free from discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. We carefully monitor developments in the law that establish and guard these rights, and take special interest in helping to define and strengthen these laws. We also handle professional licensing matters for clients, including initial licensure, the maintenance of licensing status, interstate differences in licensing requirements, the defense of professional licenses, and the dissolution of professional practice.

For Employers

We provide advice and counsel to employers who seek proactively to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local employment laws governing equal employment opportunity, wages and hours, employee benefits, family and medical leave, workplace safety, and immigration compliance.  This includes developing, reviewing, revising, and monitoring company policies and procedures; providing workplace trainings for management, employees, and human resources and communications teams to help implement and sustain lawful and best practices; and conducting internal investigations, departmental surveys, and exit interviews to help employers assess workplace culture and minimize conflict and disruption.  We carefully monitor legal developments that apply to our clients’ workplaces and provide clear counsel and work with employers to navigate workplace dynamics thoughtfully and carefully.

Immigration Law Services

We provide legal services for employers seeking to ensure worksite compliance (including through policy development, comprehensive I-9 audits, and training to handle enforcement actions), to secure talent and handle transfers, and to guard against claims of discrimination.

The immigration landscape in the United States presently is subject to new and changing policies, including restricted pathways and increased enforcement.  Certain programs are being suspended and terminated and priorities, such as family reunification, are shifting.  We expect this landscape to remain uncertain for some time, and are here to help individuals and companies navigate and respond to these changes.
