Labor and Employment Attorneys

Prevention is the best policy when it comes to workplace employment problems. Waterfall Economidis attorneys provide essential training and counseling to help employers and employees avert conflicts over the terms and conditions of employment. When difficulties arise, we collaborate with clients to find practical solutions as quickly and economically as possible.
 

Our lawyers have a solid understanding the state and federal labor laws that cover issues including discrimination, harassment, wages, and benefits, among others. They carefully guide clients in hiring, discipline, workplace complaints, termination matters, and health and safety matters. Clients rely on us to review employment contracts, advise them of employment rights, mediate between employees and employers, and represent them in civil lawsuit trials. We also assist them in crafting sound employment-related policies for their businesses.
 

We’re tough and fair advocates and open to mediation or arbitration when that is the best course for our client. If problems cannot be efficiently resolved through negotiation, we will pursue claims before federal, state, and local agencies, as well as in court. We aggressively yet diplomatically represent employers and employees before agencies including the Arizona Civil Rights Division, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and licensing agencies such as the Department of Real Estate and the Board of Medical Examiners.
