Employment Disputes
Employment disputes arise where employees bring claims individually, through counsel, and sometimes through agencies (such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and state agencies).
Employment disputes are frequently filed in state or federal courts. The attorneys at Murphy & Anderson represent clients in employment litigation in these venues for matters involving discrimination (race, age, sexual harassment, disability and other issues); compensation and severance; wage and hour issues; retaliation; contracts; and disability matters.
