Robust representation for employers
In addition to defending employers in state and federal courts across the country, HPS attorneys have represented employers before federal agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Office of Civil Rights, and the Department of Labor, as well as the Illinois Human Rights Department.
The firm offers sophisticated guidance on issues such as employee hiring, discipline and termination; leaves of absence; harassment and discrimination complaints; internal investigations; wage and hour issues; and reductions in force. When litigation is required, HPS is able to draw on its experience representing clients in class action disputes, as well as claims related to state law torts and a variety of federal laws such as Title VII; the Americans with Disabilities Act; the Age Discrimination in Employment Act; the Fair Labor Standards Act; the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA); the Employment Retirement Income Security Act; and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration Act.
