I pride myself in helping employers minimize potential liability as they manage challenging employee situations. This includes RIFs, performance issues, as well as sensitive employee investigations. I represent both private and public employers in employment discrimination litigation, National Labor Relations Board and Public Employee Relations Board proceedings, labor arbitrations, union organizing campaigns and conflict resolution procedures. I also counsel companies in Section 1113 modifications and rejections of labor contracts under the bankruptcy code. For management and first line supervisors, I provide training in sexual harassment, union avoidance, progressive discipline and proper documentation. My clients include various manufacturers, including wireless satellite and communications, defense contractors and subcontractors, electrical wiring device, as well as over the road transportation companies, municipalities, school districts, credit unions and other financial service institutions, hospitals, and long term care facilities.Up through April 2014, I served as the Secretary and General Counsel of Anaren, Inc., a NASDAQ listed company. In this capacity, I provided general business counsel covering a wide variety of corporate law issues including corporate governance, compliance and risk assessment. With Anaren’s expansion into Europe and Asia, specifically China, I have provided counsel on a variety of international labor and employment law matters. I also counseled Anaren through several mergers and acquisitions along with public offerings, SEC filings and various legal requirements pursuant to the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.
