Practice Areas
EMPLOYMENT LAW
Our attorneys stay on top of the latest developments in the complex, ever-evolving area of employment law. And we regularly put our knowledge to use by providing our clients with practical and effective legal counsel. We understand that our clients live in the real world. Our aim is to help them make decisions – both day-to-day and in exceptional situations – that achieve their goals while minimizing the risk of litigation. We have extensive experience representing individuals and companies in a broad variety of employment matters, including:
- Employee discipline, workforce reductions and severance agreements
- Anti-discrimination and wage and hour laws
- Leave laws
- Employment practices audits
- Review of employment policies, including employee manuals and handbooks, electronic communications and social media policies, and document retention policies
Where litigation becomes necessary, we are available to provide zealous, results-oriented representation in proceedings before a range of courts and administrative tribunals, including all Massachusetts state and federal courts, the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD), and the Department of Unemployment Assistance (DUA).
GENERAL CIVIL LITIGATION
In addition to the above, our firm is available to prosecute and defend a range of civil claims, including first amendment claims, tort and contract claims, professional license revocations and suspensions, landlord-tenant disputes, and other non-criminal matters that call for courtroom representation.
IMMIGRATION LAW
United States immigration law is a particularly complicated and sometimes obscure practice area, fraught with potential pitfalls. Our firm offers immigration law-related legal guidance and representation to businesses and individuals. We also have extensive experience with all aspects of immigration-related litigation, and we are particularly proud of our excellent track record in complex criminal removal (deportation) proceedings before the federal immigration courts. We are available to handle removal proceedings throughout the country.
