Employment Policy Consulting

Sometimes, the best defense is a good offense. That is why Morton & Gettys attorneys offer employment policy consulting for businesses.

Creating solid policies and procedures can help prevent many problems from cropping up. Our employment lawyers can review your existing polices, make sure they comply with the latest laws and rulings and recommend changes if there are issues. We also can create policies for new businesses that help them start out on solid legal footing.

Our team includes a South Carolina Supreme Court certified specialist in employment and labor law. She, as well as our other attorneys, will examine your policies for compliance with a range of laws, including:

• The Americans with Disabilities Act
• The Family and Medical Leave Act
• The Fair Labor Standards Act
• Title VII of the Civil Rights Act
• Employee benefits under ERISA and South Carolina Health Continuation Benefits Laws
• HIPAA
• The Affordable Care Act

Morton & Gettys employment lawyers also are available to advise businesses on day-to-day issues, guiding them toward solutions for any issues that emerge. Should the need arise, our skilled litigators stand ready to defend companies in court as well.
