Experienced, Quality Legal Representation for Employers and Employees

The employment attorneys at Paule, Camazine & Blumenthal, P.C. focus on employment law to help employers run their businesses smoothly and free from personnel issues. We also counsel and assist employees when they have been subjected to unlawful employment practices.

Employment issues present challenges for both employers and employees. One of the greatest challenges to running a successful business is recruiting, hiring, and retaining good employees. For employees, the challenge is to pursue the career of their choice in a manner that is free from discrimination and other inappropriate conduct by their employer.

If employment disputes cannot be resolved through amicable discussions with opposing parties, the employment and labor law attorneys at Paule, Camazine & Blumenthal are committed to providing our clients with cost-effective legal representation in litigation matters relating to the employer-employee relationship. We regularly represent clients in harassment, employment discrimination, disability, wrongful termination, and retaliation claims filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Missouri Commission on Human rights and in lawsuits arising out of those claims both in state and federal courts. We also represent clients on claims of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, interference with a business relationship, breach of an employment contract, and the breach of non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreements.

Our attorneys have obtained favorable outcomes for our clients at trial, but we also realize that lengthy litigation is not always in the best interests of our clients. We work closely with our clients to identify those situations in order to formulate a strategy to successfully resolve those claims through settlement negotiations, mediation, or other alternative dispute resolution methods.
