Provided by Coppersmith Brockelman PLC
Coppersmith Brockelman devotes a substantial portion of its Employment Law practice to keeping employers out of litigation and other disputes. The firm also functions as an in-house employment law department for a number of employers, ranging from companies with a few dozen employees to national companies with tens of thousands of employees in several states.
Attorneys handle lawsuits in state and federal courts, defend employers in arbitration proceedings, and represent employers in dozens of administrative proceedings each year before agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Arizona Civil Rights Division, and the Arizona Department of Labor.
Chambers Review
Coppersmith Brockelman PLC is a specialist employment practice focused on the local market but fully equipped to act at the regional or national level for Arizona-headquartered clients, most notably major healthcare providers. The firm is equally active on advisory and contentious mandates, and able to provide employment law services to companies of all sizes. It also has strength in handling alleged violations of the FMLA and ADA, and proceedings before the EEOC.
