What is Employment Law?

Employment Law is the practice of law concerning the statutes, laws, and rules that govern the relationship between employers and their employees. Lawyers who practice employment law are versed in the various circumstances where legal protections (and prohibitions) are implicated. Lawyers who practice employment law advise employers and employees on topics directly relating to the employer-employee relationship. Employment lawyers assist employees who have been wrongfully terminated and advise companies accused of wrongful termination. Some of the laws that concern employment include: Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Fair Labor Standards Act.
