Employees

Arizona is a right-to-work state. Many people who are employed in Arizona are deemed “at-will” employees. Our employment law attorneys understand the “at-will” doctrine and the nuances and complications that it brings to Arizona employment issues. They represent and assist employees with disputes with their employers. Recent representations include:

• Wage and hour claims encompassing exempt job classification, non-payment of overtime, withholding pay, failure to pay wages on termination and bonus pay disputes;
• Independent contractor issues including misclassification as independent contractor instead of employee;
• Wrongful termination including allegations and claims of retaliation, discrimination or whistleblowing;
• Negotiation of severance agreements and packages including severance compensation;
• Sexual harassment and hostile work environment claims;
• Constructive discharge claims;
• Violations of Arizona’s paid sick time law;
• Violations of federal law including Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), Affordable Care Act (ACA) and COBRA.
