Employment-related litigation comprises the greatest volume of cases filed in federal court. Parker Hudson meets this significant demand by providing the knowledge, experience, and necessary skill set to defend employers and insurers. With deep knowledge of the statutes, regulations, procedures, and current case law and agency decisions, we consistently help our clients manage trouble areas prior to litigation as well as throughout all phases and kinds of employment litigation. We do this by emphasizing a practical approach that always puts your business interests front and center.
We fully understand that, while employees are central to your business, having employees can be full of complications and leaves your business vulnerable to a lawsuit. We also understand that your company must have a legal team that is intimately familiar with the entire employment legal landscape. Our team has a deep bench of experience in every aspect of employment law across a wide range of industries.
For most clients, we are on the front end preventing brewing issues from becoming litigation. But we are also prepared to fight. From the earliest stages of a claim through the trial itself, Parker Hudson attorneys consistently craft creative solutions to litigation—solutions which always have the best, most practical, real-world outcomes as a primary goal. Further, when warranted, our attorneys can switch easily into an aggressive defense posture to secure a trial success.

To ensure the best employment litigation and counseling outcome, our employment law attorneys have extensive business litigation experience. We understand your entire business enterprise, not just employment issues. Our attorneys also provide day-to-day consultation with clients, covering such issues as wage-and-hour disputes, Title VII discrimination and retaliation, age and disability discrimination and retaliation, FMLA leave, employee discipline, termination issues, staff reductions, and various employee agreements and policies. At Parker Hudson, we go beyond the traditional ways of practicing law by looking at new ways, new solutions, and client services that truly Go Beyond.
Our approach includes:
- Studying each issue in search of creative, outside-the-box solutions that could represent a better outcome for your business
- Getting to know the ins and outs of your company and industry, so that our judgment calls and advice are always made shrewdly and in context
- Communicating with ease between our most experienced attorneys and your most senior business officers, cutting through the legalese and getting to the heart of what the situation demands
- Consulting freely with the veteran attorneys in Parker Hudson’s many other practice groups, including our Employment Benefits and Transactional Counseling group, as well as the firm’s tax attorneys, and more
- Offering flexibility and discretion in our pricing, resulting in the same bench depth and veteran experience as “Big Law” litigation defense, but with transparent and cost-effective billing, and fee arrangements that provide more value to the client
