Employment, Labor & Immigration

We understand that the employer-employee dynamic is central to the success of a business. Taylor English’s Employment, Labor & Immigration Group represents management in all aspects of the employment relationship, from training to counseling, from internal complaints to full-blown litigation. Our attorneys spent many years honing their skills at management-side law firms and corporate in-house employment departments. As a result, we have the experience and know-how to handle any employment issue a business may face, and our model allows our most senior attorneys to handle any aspect of the representation.

We know that clients expect positive results, as well as predictability from a cost standpoint. The Employment, Labor & Immigration attorneys at Taylor English will partner with your business to work toward the best result available, without breaking the bank in the process. We provide effective counseling services, helping to identify and resolve issues before they become problems. We have enjoyed tremendous success at winning lawsuits at the summary judgment stage, without exposing our clients to the time and expense of a jury trial. We also have been able to negotiate very favorable settlements for our clients at all stages of litigation, by creating leverage through effective advocacy.

Many companies utilize non-competition and non-solicitation agreements to protect their legitimate business interests from unfair practices and unscrupulous former employees. Georgia courts require these agreements to be carefully drafted to be enforceable, and will not hesitate to invalidate any overbroad agreement. The law is changing in this area, and we are working with clients every day to ensure their agreements will stand up in court.
