Ufberg & Associates’ litigation practice has successfully represented employers in a wide range of court proceedings, including all of the following:
- Aggressive and effective defense of employment discrimination actions in state and Federal courts;
- Pursuit of injunctive relief related to breach of non-compete clauses and other restrictive covenants;
- Defense of minimum wage, overtime, and other wage and hour claims; and
