About
Provided by Arnall Golden Gregory LLP
The bread and butter of AGG's Employment practice is providing timely advice to employers to help them achieve their business goals while managing the many risks associated with their workforces. As experienced litigators who live with the kinds of problems that wind up in the courtroom, we are acutely familiar with the decisions that ultimately lead to significant time and expense and potential exposure down the road. Our job is to listen, apply our judgment and experience, and provide practical and creative ways to minimize the risk associated with those problems. We provide management with real-time, practical advice, whether facing a single difficult termination or a complex multi-jurisdictional restructuring; an employee with habitual absences who suddenly has asked to take medical leave or employees threatening a wage and hour class action; or notice of a government investigation or the need for an internal investigation into potential discrimination, harassment, and/or ethical concerns. We understand that employers need timely, creative, and proactive advice, not memos educating them on the law that do not solve the problem at hand.
We benefit significantly from our membership as the exclusive Georgia firm in the Employment Law Alliance, an international network of prominent management-side employment law practitioners with a presence in every state of the country and in over 100 countries.
