Other Areas of Practice
Our other practices areas include:
-
Mediation
Mediation involves negotiation with the help of a neutral third party
to resolve a legal conflict before proceeding with litigation. This method
is often beneficial because it is more cost-effective and can produce
more creative solutions that satisfy both parties. Our firm includes experienced
and trained mediators.
-
Union representation
We believe that labor unions are conducive to creating a more democratic
and equal workplace. They are instrumental in upholding labor rights and
help union members with everyday workplace grievances. Our labor lawyers
have represented some of the largest unions in Washington, including public
and private labor groups.
-
Voter initiative
Voters have a right to directly enact legislation using the initiative
process. This is essential to the democratic process and contributes to
progress and change in society. Our firm has successfully represented
many labor unions and nonprofits in their voter initiatives.
-
Workplace investigation
Employers are required to conduct investigations when an employee has
filed a complaint about discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or a
similar employment-related violation. Employers must also take immediate
measures to remedy the problem. We are available to conduct investigations
on behalf of employers.
