Employment Law
 At Roderick Linton Belfance we assist our clients in avoiding litigation and in improving workplace morale by developing, communicating, and implementing effective personnel policies and employee handbooks. We represent both employers and employees in drafting and reviewing contracts involving employment, executive compensation, non-competition, confidentiality, severance, and similar employment-related subjects.
In those circumstances where our clients are required to litigate employment-related matters, we lend our vast litigation experience to employers and employees alike. Our counsel has experience in prosecuting and defending all types of employment litigation claims – whether it is with respect to at-will employment, employees governed by a private employment contract or employer/employee relationships subject to collective bargaining or governmental employment relations subject to specific state legislation and specific rules. Over the years, our lawyers have earned a solid reputation for both prosecuting and defending claims of employment discrimination, harassment, wrongful discharge, demotion and discipline, wage and hour violations, entitlement to employee benefits, misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential information, unfair competition, whistle-blower claims, and defamation and other employment-related torts.
In representing our clients, Roderick Linton Belfance's attorneys regularly appear in state and federal court both in Ohio and throughout the United Sates, before arbitrators, mediators (and arbitration and mediation panels) and before administrative agencies.
