At Escamilla & Poneck, LLP, we represent clients ranging from large employers to small businesses in a wide range of employment law-related concerns. We have many long-standing relationships with clients in this area and not only litigate their legal disputes in court—we also provide counseling to employers on employment matters in day-to-day operations.
Our employment attorneys counsel clients in matters such as:
- Progressive discipline
- Reassignments
- Hiring
- Disability benefits and claims
- Leaves of absence
- Fair Labor Standards Act requirements
- Whistleblower claims
- Civil Rights violations
- Severance agreements
- Disability accommodations
- Employment discrimination
- Wrongful termination
- Employment law litigation
- Sexual harassment and retaliation
- Employment contracts and policies
- Workplace reductions and reorganizations
Our attorneys have handled these and other concerns in state and federal district courts, as well as before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), Texas Employment Commission, Texas Education Agency, and Texas Worker’s Compensation Commission.
The Prevention of Employment Problems
In addition to our extensive experience with defending claims of employment discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, and whistleblower claims, our lawyers counsel clients in ways to avoid litigation through sound employment practices. Additionally, we offer in-house training and consultations in employee discipline and termination cases.
