Labor & employment

With a team of lawyers experienced in every aspect of labor and employment law, Beckman Lawson represents executives, business owners and employers of all sizes in matters that range from strategic HR planning and policy development to representation before courts and government agencies. We’re often called to provide counsel on day-to-day issues because we know the law, but just as important – because we know our clients and understand how to best serve their particular needs and objectives.

Our lawyers are admitted to practice in several states and before several courts and government agencies. We represent clients before federal, state, appellate and supreme courts, the EEOC, Department of Labor, Department of Justice, National Labor Relations Board, IRS, and the Department of Homeland Security.
