Representing management clients on labor issues is the historical core of this law firm. Our labor relations practice covers all aspects of the issues arising between our employer clients, employees, and labor unions. Several of our attorneys formerly practiced at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), providing us with the advantage of an insider's perspective. In addition to an extensive NLRB practice, our labor relations work addresses issues and claims arising with all courts and with state and federal administrative agencies handling labor issues.

Bingham McCutchen provides an unmatched range of labor, employment and benefits services to management clients. Big enough to handle the defense of complex class actions, yet flexible enough to move efficiently and quickly, we can serve the needs of multinationals as well as small businesses.  We offer comprehensive counseling, human resources consulting, management training and litigation services, including wage and hour class actions. We provide clients with strategic and tactical advice that stresses best practices, prevention and compliance. To receive our Employment Law Alerts, email joanne.kwon@bingham.com.  For more information, go to www.bingham.com/employment.
