Labor Relations
Nixon Peabody has a dedicated labor relations team that understands both the legal issues and political challenges related to unionized workforces.
Overview
We have extensive, successful experience dealing with unionized workforces and union organizing campaigns. Our attorneys often assist employers faced with threatened or actual work stoppages or picketing; business acquisition, disposition, and sourcing labor complications; collective bargaining negotiations, contract grievances, and arbitrations; and representation in National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) and unfair labor practice matters.
