Employee Lawsuits

In some situations, no amount of mediation or arbitration will lead to a resolution of employment disputes. Keeping your business goals in mind, our attorneys will develop a strategic defense against employee lawsuits. We represent employers who are facing charges that their companies' human resources policies or actions violated a broad array of applicable laws, including:

• Titles I and V of the American Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended, which prohibit employment discrimination against qualified individuals with disabilities
• Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, which protects individuals who are 40 years of age or older
• Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin
• Pennsylvania Human Relations Act, which prohibits discrimination because of race, color, religious creed, ancestry, age or national origin

We will also defend your rights as an employer in a variety of lawsuits related to human resource issues, including:

• Breach of employment agreements
• Enforcement of non-competition and non-disclosure agreements
• Wage and hour disputes
• Unemployment compensation
• Wrongful termination

Our proactive approach can minimize your risk of difficult employer/employee disputes. Kaplin Stewart is an employer’s comprehensive source for human resource matters including employee handbooks, workplace training and investigations.
