EMPLOYMENT DISPUTES

WRONGED BY YOUR EMPLOYER? GET RUDE® TO GET RIGHT.

Employment law is an ever-evolving area of the law. It’s no secret that employers face a daunting challenge in keeping up with the numerous and frequently changing laws and regulations governing employment. On top of that, countless state and federal decisions interpret these laws and regulations, adding to the complexity. These legal issues impact workers’ livelihoods and the success of companies, making disputes highly emotional and public – and impactful. For these reasons, resolving employment conflicts can be incredibly challenging.

Trouble in the workplace can generate an inordinate amount of stress personally, professionally, and financially. Whether you’re in Louisiana, Texas, or anywhere else in the country, RUDIN LAW is available to lend a hand when your employer does you wrong.

TYPES OF EMPLOYMENT DISPUTES AND THE LAWS GOVERNING THEM

Employment disputes often lead to costly and time-consuming lawsuits. Over the past decade, these actions have increased, including large-scale class actions, mass arbitrations, and individual complaints. Employers now face greater challenges and financial risks from both current and former employees.

Employment disputes can occur in many forms, including:

1. Discrimination (Race, Sex, Gender, Age Pregnancy, Disability)
2. Harassment (Sexual or Otherwise)
3. Unpaid or Underpaid Wages or Hours pay
4. Worker Misclassification (Employee v. Independent Contractor)
5. Overtime Violations
6. Wrongful Discharge or Termination
7. Entitlement to Benefits
8. Enforcement or Avoidance of Restrictive Covenants (Non-Compete or Non-Solicitation)
9. Defamation, Slander, Libel, and Other Reputation-Related Torts
10. Misappropriation of Trade Secrets, Confidential Information, and Other Intellectual Property
11. Unfair Competition
12. Workplace Safety violations

These claims often involve a complex web of laws governing relations between the worker and the business, commonly known as the “employment law alphabet soup.” This includes laws like:

1. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII)
2. Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
3. Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)
4. Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
5. Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
6. Whistleblower Protections under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) and Dodd-Frank Act
7. Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA)
8. Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
9. Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA)
10. National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)

In addition, state laws may provide the same, similar, or even greater protections than the Federal laws referenced above.
