Why Wisconsin businesses should have a Wisconsin Employment Attorney

  • Superior knowledge of Wisconsin law – which is substantially different than many federal and other states’ laws.
    • Greater accommodation requirements for individuals with disabilities.
    • The enforceability of non-compete and related agreements are subject to hostile and evolving standards.
    • Family & Medical leave requirements which differ from federal mandates.
    • Wage & Hour requirements which differ from federal law.
    • "Plant closing/mass layoff" laws that differ from federal requirements.
    • State posting requirements.
  • Greater familiarity with Wisconsin investigators and judges.
  • Familiarity with the procedural quirks and traps of Wisconsin employment law.

Wisconsin employment law is a "different animal". Why pay a lawyer from another state to (hopefully) learn what we already know?
