Employees are the lifeblood of business, directly influencing your company's ability to gain and maintain competitive advantage. However, the many laws, rules, and regulations governing the employer-employee relationship are complex, confusing and often contradictory.

At Goodman Allen & Filetti, we believe the employer's best defense is to be proactive in developing effective practices and policies in a focused effort to prevent problems before they arise. Our goal is to reduce the risk of litigation by providing prompt counsel to employers on a variety of human resource issues. When litigation is unavoidable, the experienced team at Goodman Allen & Filetti is prepared to defend vigorously the interests of our clients against all types of employment claims, including wrongful termination, breach of contract, discrimination, and harassment.

In addition, our attorneys have experience in the area of Workers' Compensation representing both insurance companies and self-insured companies. We work closely with employers in the development and implementation of effective claims-handling and monitoring procedures. Our attorneys advise employers regarding their rights and responsibilities toward injured workers.
