SCB’s employment law attorneys are skilled in litigation and business planning, allowing us to provide employers and employees with the best possible legal advice and representation to our clients.

While we focus on helping you avoid litigation, should a dispute arise, our experienced team of litigators will aggressively focus on the critical points of your case and act quickly to resolve it as cost-efficiently as possible.

Our employment law attorneys are well versed in all areas of employment law, and are skilled at arbitration, mediation and litigation. We advise public and private businesses and individuals on a variety of personnel issues, including policies (and policy manuals), hiring, employment contracts, discrimination and discharge. We also help clients comply with state and federal regulations, including workers' compensation and wage and hour laws, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act and OSHA/WISHA. Our lawyers have defended suits involving sex, religious, pregnancy, age, race, and handicap discrimination, sexual harassment, defamation, retaliatory discharge, breach of contract, wage and hour violations, and violation of the Washington Unfair Business Practice Act.
