Employment Litigation

The attorneys of H&J have experience in all areas of employment litigation.  We represent clients in claims brought under Title VII and the Tennessee Human Rights Act, as well as sexual harassment and wrongful termination claims, federal and state employment discrimination claims, breach of employment contracts and non-compete covenants actions. Our firm works successfully with many clients in defending such claims in both state and federal courts, and before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Tennessee Human Rights Commission.

Our experience extends to drafting position statements; handling negotiations and mediations; conducting employee interviews and whistleblower investigations; and representing employers in unemployment compensation hearings, Department of Labor compensation audits and congressional inquiry responses.  H&J also assists clients with the U.S. Office of Federal Contract Compliance Program through compensation audits and compliance issues and helps form effective implementation strategies for consent decrees.
