Jackson Lewis is committed to the practice of preventive labor relations through issue assessment, supervisory training, advice and counsel with respect to policy development, and lawful/positive communications. Jackson Lewis has been retained to advise many employers who have succeeded in winning NLRB elections or in avoiding union elections altogether. Our labor attorneys have represented clients in thousands of matters before arbitrators, mediators, the National Labor Relations Board, state labor boards, government agencies, and state and federal courts. On a daily basis, we advise employers regarding corporate campaigns, neutrality agreement requests, union organizing, NLRB elections, contract negotiations, grievance and arbitration proceedings, unfair labor practices, traditional third party pressures (such as picketing or hand billing), "new age" public appeals (such as websites and blogs), work stoppages, purchase/sales, reductions and reorganizations, as well as the entire range of pre- and post-hire employee relations issues.

Jackson Lewis attorneys can assist employers in identifying legal needs, building a solid defense, meeting compliance requirements, and developing best practices. For more information, please contact practice area coordinator Philip B. Rosen or the Jackson Lewis attorney with whom you regularly work.
