Helms & Greene Employment Litigation

Employment Litigation
Our litigators enjoy vigorously representing employers in these proceedings. We like to win and litigation provides us that competitive outlet. Many clients have commented over the years that our litigators bring intensity, responsiveness, and attention to detail lacking in other firms.

Employment Claims
Despite best efforts, even the well intentioned employer is periodically required to respond to complaints before state and federal agencies and courts. We have specific knowledge in these state and federal substantive matters. We handle the following types of matters:

FLSA individual and collective actions
State compensation claims on an individual or class action claims
State or federal discrimination claim
State or federal harassment cases
Alleged equal pay infractions
Breach of employment contract actions
Diversion of proprietary information / duty of loyalty breach
Misconduct – diversion of talent by competitors
Invasion of Privacy claims

Employee Benefit Claims
We defend directors, officers, fiduciaries, and corporations in state and federal proceedings alleging ERISA violations, breach of fiduciary duty, and other acts of corporate misconduct. Our work includes assisting clients in administrative proceedings brought by federal or state agencies, including the Internal Revenue Service and the Pension Benefit Guarantee Corporation. We have particular expertise handling matters in state and federal court involving claims brought by employees, retirees, labor organizations, and other third parties.
