Labor and Employment

Our firm maintains one of the most well-known, recognized, and respected labor and employment practices in West Texas. We provide counseling and litigation expertise to management in the expanding areas of labor and employment law, including labor relations and litigation. Attorneys Mark D. Dore and Bruce A. Koehler are board certified in Labor and Employment Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.

Our employment lawyers advise clients on a variety of workplace issues, including employment-related claims (such as wrongful termination, defamation, invasion of privacy, negligent hiring or retention); workplace issues (such as personnel policies, non-competition agreements, independent contractors, drug testing, and OSHA compliance); and union-related issues (such as collective bargaining, arbitration, union negotiations, and unfair labor practices). We also advise clients regarding employee benefit plans, including plan design and interpretation, and related filings with the IRS, SEC and Labor Department.
