Litigation

Bridges Law Group’s attorneys are accomplished trial lawyers in administrative proceedings, as well as both bench and jury trials, appeals. Our attorneys have represented management in litigation matters ranging from multi-district litigation to single-employee suits in various forums and jurisdictions. We have considerable pretrial, trial and appellate experience in state and federal courts in defense of discrimination and harassment claims under the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, in defense of ‘whistle-blower’ and retaliation claims under the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protections Act and in defense of claims for wrongful discharge and breach of restrictive covenants. We also have experience handling matters before the New Jersey Division on Civil Rights and the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Our attorneys have often served as local counsel to out-of-state companies, providing expert insight into the unique, extensive, and sometimes conflicting employment laws within the State of New Jersey. In addition, we have substantial experience with implementing alternative dispute resolution methods to employment disputes, such as through mediation and arbitration. In every litigation matter, we first meet with each client to define objectives and then devise a strategy to meet those objectives as effectively and efficiently as possible.
