Choosing a lawyer
No matter what side you end up on in a legal dispute at work, whether you're the employer or the employee, one of the most important decisions you'll need to make is choosing the right labor and employment attorney to help you solve your problem.
Immigrant worker laws
The Immigration Reform and Control Act, also known as the IRCA (I-R-C-A), is the primary federal law that addresses the rights of immigrant workers. Under the Act, employers must treat immigrant workers who are legally authorized to work in the United States in the same manner as natural-born or naturalized American workers.
Labor law overview
Labor and employment laws are the body of federal, state, and local laws that regulate workplace behavior and govern the relationship between employers, employees, and unions.
Migrant and seasonal worker protection
The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act, also known as the MSPA (M-S-P-A), was enacted to protect the rights of farm workers on matters of pay and working conditions.
Unemployment compensation law
If you've been terminated from your job through no fault of your own, you may be entitled under the unemployment compensation law to receive money for a given period of time to pay for necessities such as food, clothing, and shelter as you look for a new job.
