Employment Litigation Defense

GTH is sought out by employers facing claims. We are known for our strong advocacy in administrative claims, lawsuits, and class actions. We have defended employers against claims of wrongful discharge, sexual coercion and harassment, hostile workplace, retaliation, wage-hour violations, and discrimination based on age, sex, race, religion, or other protected status. Due to the often sensitive nature of these claims and their potential for damage to an employer’s business, we often minimize our clients’ exposure through aggressive motion practice early on, often resulting in partial or complete summary judgment dismissal or positioning the case for a favorable settlement. However, we recognize that employment litigation sometimes cannot be avoided. In these instances, we draw upon our extensive trial experience to effectively defend such claims through trial.
