Employment Law

The Mette, Evans & Woodside Employment Law and Benefits Program attorneys have been helping businesses meet the challenges of maintaining a highly skilled workforce for over four decades. Our employment law experience enables us to provide comprehensive legal counsel to businesses and assist them in making sound employment policy decisions

Our attorneys are knowledgeable in the multifaceted state and federal regulations that surround many human resource decisions. We strive to keep our clients abreast of legal and regulatory developments that will impact their businesses. When preventative employment policy measures are not sufficient, we can provide aggressive representation before administrative agencies and the courts.

Our Employment Law practice provides counsel on:

• Human resource and employee relations issues
• Employment agreements and executive compensation
• Unemployment and workers' compensation defense
• Employee benefits and ERISA
• Discrimination defense
• Wage and labor standards compliance
• Traditional pension and profit-sharing plans

The attorneys at Mette, Evans & Woodside are also prepared to provide the expertise necessary in structuring more complex options for employees such as employee stock-ownership plans, cafeteria plans, 401K plans and other compensation programs.
