Employment
Zelle Hofmann represents employers in a wide variety of employment claims. The firm has extensive experience defending employers in cases involving wrongful termination, age, sexual, racial and disability discrimination and harassment, violations of both federal and state labor and employment statutes, trade secret protection and unfair competition, and matters involving employee benefit funds. The firm’s employment practice occurs in federal court and before numerous state and local courts and administrative agencies.
The firm also has a substantial class action practice, which makes it uniquely situated to defend those employers facing putative class actions. The firm’s experience with class action litigation provides significant value to employers facing the potentially large exposure often associated with such cases. Moreover, Zelle Hofmann is one of only a few firms that has successfully tried a large employment class action case to a jury.
