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.
