Employment litigation before courts or administrative agencies cannot always be avoided. However, the preventive steps taken prior to litigation often mean the difference between winning and losing. We work closely with our clients to minimize exposures to liability.

If litigation becomes necessary, Dunlevey, Mahan & Furry’s team of experienced trial attorneys will provide vigorous representation before federal and state courts. We also will act as your advocate before the Occupational Safety & Health Administration; the National Labor Relations Board; state civil rights commissions; the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; the U.S. Department of Labor; the Industrial Commission and Bureau of Workers’ Compensation; and the numerous other federal, state, and local agencies that regulate employment relationships.

When a claim is made against your company, we will strategize on available defense and settlement options, helping you determine the best course of action for your company. If litigation is a must, Dunlevey, Mahan & Furry attorneys – experienced courtroom advocates – are ready to go the distance. We have litigated, in jury and non-jury trials and administrative hearings, virtually every type of labor, safety, workers’ compensation and employment case, including sexual harassment, wrongful termination, discrimination, and other cutting edge issues.
