At Blethen, Gage & Krause we are dedicated to providing our clients with comprehensive strategies for dealing with the complex and ever changing relationship between employers and employees. Our practice is designed to increase awareness and decrease the exposure both employers and employees may have with regard to employment-related claims. We regularly present seminars to our business clients regarding employment-related issues and the changes in the law which impact them.
Our services, when engaged in a preventative manner, are an investment that will pay dividends by increasing awareness and decreasing the costs resulting from employee turnover and litigation. Our attorneys advise employers about statutory compliance, hiring, termination, documentation and discipline, as well as non-competition and non-solicitation rights, and drafting.
In the event of employment litigation, we represent employers and employees in areas including: employment litigation, discrimination, harassment, wrongful discharge, contract and defamation litigation and the enforcement of non-competition and non-solicitation agreements. We also conduct harassment investigations for employers and have represented both employers and employees before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Minnesota Department of Human Rights, as well as at all court levels.
