Arent Fox represents clients on diverse issues that arise in the workplace. We act as advisors, negotiators, advocates, and litigators, representing primarily employers in personnel, labor relations, employment discrimination, occupational safety, benefits, immigration, legislative, health care, and other employment-related matters. Our cases frequently include allegations of sexual harassment, as well as discrimination on the basis of age, disability, race, sex, or sexual orientation. We have also been retained by companies to conduct internal investigations of sexual harassment claims.

We have defended “wrongful discharge” cases in state and federal courts in bench and jury trials. We also represent employers who bring claims against former employees for breach of contract, unfair competition, and breach of fiduciary duties. We have one of the best-known OSHA-defense practices in the country.
