Labor & Employment Defense

Navigating employment laws can be overwhelming, particularly as businesses strive to balance compliance with their operational goals. At Exoro Law, we specialize in defending employers against complex labor and employment claims. Our experienced attorneys understand the challenges faced by businesses, whether dealing with wage disputes, discrimination allegations, or compliance concerns. We offer practical, strategic legal counsel to help your business address employment-related disputes and maintain compliance with federal and state laws.

Wage and Hour Claims
Employment disputes related to wages can quickly escalate, especially when claims involve the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), collective actions, or state statutes on unpaid wages. Our attorneys have successfully defended businesses in investigations and lawsuits concerning:

• Minimum wage and overtime violations under the FLSA.
• Unpaid wage claims under Florida law.
• Federal and state agency investigations into proper pay practices.

EEOC Complaints and Discrimination Cases
When faced with Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) complaints or discrimination lawsuits, businesses need seasoned legal advocates. Our team has extensive experience addressing claims including:

• Sexual harassment, pregnancy discrimination, and hostile work environment allegations.
• Violations of nursing mother protections under new laws.
• Discrimination based on race, sex, age, religion, national origin, or disability (including AIDS-related claims).
• Failure to investigate complaints or implement proper workplace policies.

Restrictive Covenant Enforcement
Non-compete and confidentiality agreements are critical for protecting your business interests. We defend and enforce restrictive covenants, ensuring your intellectual property and competitive edge remain secure.

Policy Development and Documentation
Proactive measures are the best defense. We assist businesses in creating legally sound documentation, including:

• Employee handbooks.
• Disciplinary procedures.
• Employment contracts and termination letters.

Internal Investigations and Compliance Consulting
Ensuring compliance before a dispute arises is key. We provide guidance on internal investigations, workplace compliance, and practical solutions for managing terminations, reducing risk, and safeguarding your business.

Employment disputes can be both legally complex and financially daunting. At Exoro Law, we believe in making high-quality legal defense accessible to businesses of all sizes. We evaluate claims comprehensively, offering clients tailored defense strategies that align with their needs and goals.
