Employment and Labor Law

As a member of the Employment Law Alliance, an elite group of employment and labor attorneys from more than 50 nations, Sturgill-Turner attorneys routinely work with the world’s finest and most experienced employment law firms to provide reliable and efficient services to clients. As an Alliance member, our attorneys have immediate access to an extensive network of resources from around the United States and abroad. This allows us to address novel employment issues and those faced by multi-jurisdictional employers in an efficient and timely manner. Only one firm is selected from each state to be a member of the Alliance, and Sturgill-Turner is proud to have the honor of being that firm in Kentucky.

Our employment and labor law services encompass all aspects of the employment relationship, including hiring and termination practices, personnel policies, employee handbooks, employee disciplinary actions, FLSA compliance audits, drafting of employment contracts and non-compete and confidentiality agreements, FMLA, HIPAA and ADA compliance, ERISA issues, COBRA issues, WARN Act, OSHA, workers’ compensation issues, discrimination and retaliation claims, wage and hour issues, union issues, and privacy issues.

Our attorneys are experienced litigators at both the administrative level and in state and federal courts. We are also unique in that our firm’s knowledge in employment and labor allows us to provide risk management services targeted at limiting employment and labor related claims. Our risk management work includes evaluating employers’ policies, procedures, and practices and presenting seminars and training for management and workers.
