Labor and Employment Group

Professional Biography

With offices in the United States, London, France and Germany, and a strategic alliance with MWE Law Offices in Shanghai, the broad geographic dispersion of McDermott Will & Emery’s labor & employment practice enables us to serve clients on international, national, regional and local levels.   Our Firm represents employers in virtually every industry, including manufacturing, financial services, health care, education and construction.

Our goal is to help clients maximize their human resources, while avoiding exposure to liability.   Employment disputes, however, often result in litigation despite following best practices. Our lawyers conduct a full range of labor and employment litigation before U.S. federal and state trial and appellate courts, and U.S. administrative agencies as well as the European and Asian equivalents.   We also arbitrate and mediate all types of employment disputes and, in the United States, represent employers in collective bargaining negotiations, grievance arbitration, maintaining a union-free environment and election and unfair labor practice proceedings before the National Labor Relations Board.
