MDM&C's Labor & Employment Group is renowned not only in New Jersey but in the other states in which we practice, and has experience in all aspects of labor and employment law. MDM&C has more than twenty years experience servicing governmental entities in the labor and employment arena.  Attorneys at the firm have handled labor and employment matters on behalf of public entities in state and federal courts as well as before the New Jersey Public Employment Relations Commission New Jersey Merit System Board, New Jersey Division on Civil Rights, Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, National Labor Relations Board, and Division of Wage and Hour.  Attorneys negotiate Collective Bargaining Agreements and provide advice with respect to issues regarding employment discrimination, sexual harassment, wrongful discharge, breach of contract, wage and hour compliance, family/medical leave, and general disciplinary matters in union and non-union work environments. 

The lawyers at MDM&C represent employers in a wide-ranging labor and employment practice.  We defend clients against various statutory claims of alleged discrimination in hiring, promotion, benefits and discharge, and common-law wrongful discharge claims.  These cases often have included novel constitutional, statutory, and public policy issues.  MDM&C’s clients have obtained favorable jury verdicts rejecting discrimination, and other claims brought by terminated employees.
