I am a labor and employment attorney with The Previant Law Firm.  Most of my practice consists of providing full service representation to labor organizations.  I also represent individual clients in labor and employment matters.  Most of my time is spent litigating before federal and state courts, as well as administrative agencies such as the National Labor Relations Board and the Wisconsin Employment Relations Commission.  I have represented clients in locations ranging from New York to California, and have handled cases involving wage and hour laws (including a two week trial before state court), employee benefits, judicial review of administrative decisions, contract enforcement actions, and duty of fair representation litigation.  I have had the opportunity to orally argue cases before the Iowa Supreme Court, as well as a number of lower federal and state courts.  During the course of my practice I have had  a lot of opportunities to hone individual litigation skills, such as drafting and responding to discovery, motion practice, and the taking and defending of depositions.. Another part of my practice involves representing labor unions in arbitrations, which are trials before private judges called arbitrators concerning whether decisions made by employers violated their collective bargaining agreements with labor organizations.  Arbitrations are less scripted than trials, and require the lawyer to think on his feet far more often.  In the past 4 years I have represented labor organizations in 23 arbitrations involving the discipline or discharge of an employee, and have persuaded the arbitrator to modify or eliminate the discharge/discipline in 18 out of the 23 cases.  I have also won substantially more than half of my arbitrations, where the issue is whether the employer erred in interpreting the collective bargaining agreement.  In winning the arbitrations I have recovered for my labor union clients up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.. I am especially interested in expanding my practice to handle more class action and other individual plaintiff cases, in practice areas such as wage and hour litigation and securities litigation.  I have an aggressive litigation style that is suited to represent plaintiffs in class and individual plaintiff litigation.
