Our firm is a full-service, labor and employment law firm providing strategic advice to employees, managers, and executives who are facing problems at work, have been terminated, or are in the process of a job transition. The Firm's services include the review of severance and separation agreements, review and interpretation of employment and non-compete agreements; strategies and advice for responding to disciplinary warnings, performance improvement plans, and other adverse employment actions; the filing and pursuit of discrimination and wrongful termination claims both internally, and before the EEOC, Department of Labor, State Equal Rights Division, and related agencies; negotiations of settlements and mediation; and the pursuit of claims relating to poor or defamatory employment references. The Firm also provides services to small businesses and non-profits who are in need of advice and assistance in defending themselves against unwarranted discrimination, wage and hour, wrongful termination, and related claims; responding to investigations by the EEOC, Department of Labor, State Equal Rights Division, and other governmental agencies; drafting and enforcing employment/non-compete agreements and human resources policies, and litigating in state proceedings or the federal courts. Hynes & Kuhn prides itself on providing prompt, practical and focused advice, with an emphasis on resolving the workplace issue presented, without incurring any unnecessary cost or harm to the client’s good name and reputation. We strongly emphasize strategic negotiation and the pursuit of out-of-court settlements, whenever possible. However, where settlement is not feasible, the Firm will vigorously defend our clients' legal rights and/or pursue litigation in the administrative agencies or courts.
