Labor, Employment & Civil Rights

Our labor and employment practice is versatile. On any given day, Jacoby Donner represents employers, employees, union pension and benefit funds, trade associations, and contractors.

We guide you through your employment decisions, advise you on employment agreements or separation, help you protect your trade secrets, and counsel you on civil rights statute compliance. If a dispute arises, we passionately represent you in any agency or courtroom proceeding.

We represent Plaintiffs, Defendants, Claimants and Respondents in labor hearings and arbitrations, employment agency hearings, discrimination lawsuits, and other suits and claims of all types.

Our guidance includes:

  • Compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements, such as the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
  • Anti-discrimination laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA), and state laws such as the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD).
  • Occupational safety and health (OSHA) counseling, guidance in establishing safety programs and documentation, and settlement and advocacy of contested OSHA citations and violations.
  • Non-Compete Agreements, Confidentiality Agreements, Trade Secret  protections, and employment separation/severance agreements.
  • Wrongful discharge, defamation, and related claims.
  • Pensions, profit sharing, and ERISA. See our dedicated Practice Area.
