Labor/Negotiations

We provide collective bargaining agreement interpretation/administration and represent the board responding to and defending grievances. We advise school administrators of all potential risks and liabilities regarding adverse employment actions (i.e., tenure charges, increment withholding, transfers, terminations, non-renewals and RIFs).

Our attorneys serve as the chief spokesperson for Boards of Education in the negotiations of collective bargaining agreements. By reviewing and assessing the impact of each labor contract, we successfully negotiate reductions in labor costs by removing costly and inefficient provisions.
