What Do Employment Lawyers Do?

Review employment contracts

Employment contract writing relies on complicated legal jargon you may not fully understand. Our Minneapolis employment attorneys have an understanding of Minnesota labor laws, and we recommend a lawyer look over any contract before you sign. A labor attorney can identify any clause that may negatively affect you and request them changed to more favorable terms.

Employment matters addressed in contracts often include:

  • Pay
  • Overtime pay
  • Allowances
  • Medical leave
  • Vacation days
  • Working hours
  • Job description
  • Contract duration
 

Hire an employment law attorney to look over any relevant documents before taking legal action. They will help protect you and keep your best interests in mind.

Offer legal counsel

In the workplace, many grey-area situations can arise. Before you file any complaints or join a class action suit, talk with an employment attorney first.

Whistleblowers often find themselves in a difficult situation when they have access to incriminating evidence but must risk a breach of contract to disclose such information. The delicate nature of whistleblowing calls for top-notch legal counsel to help prevent blowback against the employee. It’s important to protect whistleblowers, who play a vital role in exposing business owners who do not comply with regulatory standards.

Examples of situations that could require employment litigation include:

  • Endangerment
  • Workplace age discrimination
  • Bullying
  • Unpaid wages
  • Assault
  • Damage to personal property at the workplace
 

Handle employment discrimination claims

Discrimination claims cover a vast amount of employment discrimination, including discrimination against:

A lawyer can help identify these legal issues and ensure your employer recognizes your civil rights in the workplace.

Some employment practices like discrimination and wrongful termination can be tricky to address.

However, HKM Employment Attorneys know Minnesota employment law and will help assert your employee rights. In addition, at the federal level, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) mandates business owners curb employment discrimination in the workplace and sets out regulations to protect employee civil rights.
