The lawyers at Xue & Associates, P.C., in New York City are involved on a daily basis in counseling, arbitration and litigation involving employment law, representing various employers. Many businesses put our knowledge of federal and state employment law statutes to use proactively by consulting with them on specific workplace controversies that arise and how to prevent them.
We help small and mid-sized companies ensure compliance with employment laws and prevent or minimize the effects of litigation, including wage and hour disputes, discrimination cases, and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) penalties.

- General employment/personnel counseling including personnel policies and procedures, employee handbooks and employee discipline and termination
- Equal Employment Opportunity practice before the EEO Commission, and federal and state courts including employment discrimination claims based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age and disability

Management Training Attorney
Our New York City employment law compliance attorneys work with human resource departments to draft and review their employment handbooks and policies, including their wage and hour, sexual harassment and anti-discrimination policies. We also assist employers with issues that arise during employee performance reviews, discipline and termination procedures. Assistance with respect to OSHA compliance and employee safety guidelines is also available. If necessary, we can partner with businesses to create and implement training for employees on the policies developed.
Our lawyers have handled hundreds of cases involving the full scope of employment law issues. We are thoroughly familiar with the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Title VII discrimination matters, plus OSHA and Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) compliance issues.
Federal and state employment law regulations change frequently. It's critical to stay on top of these changes, but difficult to do when you are trying to remain competitive in your own industry. Our legal team can assist you with workplace compliance on a one-time basis or create an ongoing consulting arrangement. Call 212-219-2275 or email us to discuss your options.
