We Know Wisconsin Employment Law
Our Wisconsin employment law attorneys are committed to representing the interests of job seekers and employees before, during, and after employment. We pride ourselves on providing our clients legal advice and advocacy equal to the best lawyers serving employers.
As experienced Wisconsin employment law attorneys, we have represented people from all walks of life, and in all professions and occupations. We have negotiated with and litigated against large and small private and government employers. State and federal statutes, combined with interpretative court decisions, provide protections for employees. We are skilled at identifying meritorious claims based upon the patchwork of legal precedent that has been developed over more than 60 years of legal precedent.
We are skilled at identifying meritorious claims based upon the numerous laws and court decisions that make up a complex patchwork of legal protection for employees.
Getting Results
Litigation (Going to Court)
Litigation is sometimes the only way to resolve a serious dispute. Negotiations are driven by employers’ interests in avoiding the risk of litigation, which can be costly and time consuming. If an employer feels an employee has a strong case and sharp attorneys, it is often more willing to negotiate. Hawks Quindel attorneys offer decades of Wisconsin employment law experience advocating in investigations, hearings, trials, and appeals in courts and administrative agencies throughout the state.
Negotiation (Settling out of Court)
Skillful negotiation resolves most disputes. Most employers, confronted with well-prepared demands based on skillfully organized evidence and legal arguments, will settle “out of court.” We work to avoid costly litigation whenever possible, and to negotiate from a position of strength based on thorough research and evidence.
Depth of Experience
As part of a firm of varied, knowledgeable, and experienced professionals, we can provide our clients with counsel and advocacy affecting all aspects of employment and career issues. Combining our many years of experience and the expertise of the employment law practitioners with that of the other attorneys at Hawks Quindel enhances the depth and breadth of representation our firm can offer clients.
