Who Do I Advocate For?
I primarily represent employers, particularly in the hospitality industry and construction domains. Most of my clients are restaurants, hotels, or construction employers. I work on their side, ensuring they navigate the complicated terrains of employment laws and managerial issues.
What Problems Can I Help You Solve?
I tackle two core issues. First, I address employment-related concerns from the employer’s perspective, helping them by analyzing employee behaviors, conducting investigations, and suggesting resolutions. I also assist with claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act and New York State labor law, ensuring employers maintain the required records and adhere to relevant laws, especially around payment and working hours.
Second, I advise contractors on contract reviews and assist with mechanic’s liens, enforcement actions, and other legal issues specific to their domain.
How Can I Make A Difference For You?
I’ve been practicing law since the late seventies, which means that I bring deep knowledge of the law and a unique perspective to the table. I’ve seen the world of employment and labor relations evolve, and this experience equips me to protect employers effectively. By ensuring employers are protected against unwarranted claims, I not only aid them directly but also discourage aggressive plaintiff’s lawyers from making unnecessary claims.
A Track Record That Speaks For Itself
- Successfully managed numerous employment-related cases, ensuring employers navigate New York labor laws efficiently.
- Expertise in resolving employment issues for hospitality and construction industries, having defended against major claims and advised on critical contracts.
- Extensive knowledge in action over insurance and its ramifications for employers, ensuring clients are always one step ahead.
Who I Am
Having practiced since the late seventies, I’ve witnessed and actively participated in the evolution of employment and labor relations. This rich history gives me a perspective many might not have. I initially dealt with union organizing efforts, union contract negotiations, and a few discrimination cases, but I’ve seen the landscape change to focus more on wage underpayment cases.
This journey has made me appreciate the nuances of employment law deeply. I chose this path to help employers navigate complex legal scenarios, ensuring they can conduct their businesses efficiently and fairly. What sets me apart? It’s my decades-long experience, which not only provides knowledge but also instills wisdom in dealing with varying challenges.
