Overview
Despite rumors to the contrary, the labor movement is alive and well in America, with thousands of unionized employers in the workplace. Addressing employment issues arising from collective bargaining agreements or during a union campaign can often present unique challenges to preserving both employee morale and employer economic sustainability. Employers who have no union presence are still governed by certain aspects of the National Labor Relations Act and subject to jurisdiction of the National Labor Relations Board.
Perkins Coie Labor & Employment lawyers have a rare depth of experience born from decades of representing some of the largest union employers in the United States at the bargaining table. Our lawyers have not only directly negotiated collective bargaining agreements, but also have worked closely with employers to develop pre-strike contingency planning, effectively manage union organizing or strike activities, and respond to unfair labor practice complaints or related litigation before the National Labor Relations Board. We have also routinely provided cost-effective representation during arbitration proceedings under collective bargaining agreements, relying upon our substantial courtroom experience to achieve favorable outcomes for our clients.
