Employment Law

Employment issues and disputes are realities that all employers face today.

Consequently, employers must not only have effective, up-to-date employment policies, but must make concerted effort to train and counsel management on both avoiding and handling not only disputes but also a variety of issues that arise during the day-to-day operations of a business.

Employers must select attorneys with more than just experience. To effectively defend and resolve employment litigation, an employer needs attorneys with a special blend of sensitivity and aggressiveness. Fox Smith attorneys have those unique skills to deal with the often inflammatory and personalized nature of employees’ claims and the bias of many jurors against some employers and industries.

At Fox Smith, we not only litigate employment-related claims, we train and counsel employers in the areas of discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage and hour law, non-compete agreements, and general contract disputes—in other words, on how to avoid claims in the future.

Fox Smith attorneys have successfully litigated and resolved a variety of employment-related matters in Missouri and Illinois, including cases involving:

  • Retaliatory discharge and Workers' Compensation retaliation claims
  • Hiring and firing decisions
  • Employee accommodations
  • Discrimination and harassment claims
  • Non-compete and non-solicitation actions
  • Wage and hour law violations
  • Family Medical Leave Act claims
  • Equal Pay Act claims
  • Agency and personnel investigations
  • Whistleblower claims
