Legal Counsel for Employers and Employees Navigating Workplace Issues

For employers, workplace disputes can disrupt your business operations. For employees, your personal livelihood could be at stake. You need legal counsel experienced with the intricacies of employment laws and the realities of today’s work environment.

Zanck, Coen, Wright & Saladin, PC, has extensive experience representing employers’ and employees’ interests in a wide range of employment law matters. We take a straightforward and practical approach, focused on helping you understand your rights and responsibilities while working toward effective and informed solutions.

Workplace Disputes, Contracts, and Compliance

ZCWS attorneys can assist you with the full array of legal issues that arise in employment relationships, whether you are an employer looking to prevent conflicts or an employee whose rights need to be protected.

We regularly advise clients about:

  • Employment Agreements and Policies
  • Wage and Hour Issues
  • Workplace Investigations
  • Non-Compete and Confidentiality Agreements
  • Compliance with State and Federal Employment Laws

We are here to help you, as an employer, proactively address workplace concerns to keep your business running smoothly. On the other hand, employees can also rely on our experienced attorneys to help navigate the impact of unfair employment practices.

Integrated Legal Support when Employment Issues Overlap

When you have ZCWS in your corner, you won’t need multiple law firms to manage other legal issues that arise in your business or personal legal life.

If your employment issues involve workplace injuries, compensation, or benefits, you can rely on our workers’ compensation attorneys who can ensure your legal concerns are addressed thoroughly and efficiently, either from the employee’s or employer’s perspective.

We’ve found that employment matters often also involve business operations or contracts, and worst case, may even result in a civil dispute. Our business law attorneys will work closely with your leadership team to provide coordinated guidance. If workplace disputes require formal legal action, you have seamless access to our civil litigation team, ensuring continuity and a consistent legal strategy.

I have worked with this firm and Jennifer Johnson for several years. Their team has helped my family through some interesting situations ranging from guardianship and home buying and selling to a wage dispute with a former employer. They treated every situation and every inquiry seriously. I can't say enough about the great communication and their level of professionalism. Use this firm with confidence.
