Waller Lansden understands that healthcare employers have a unique set of needs. We have assembled a diverse and talented group of lawyers dedicated to serving the healthcare industry and representing the labor and employment needs of healthcare organizations locally, regionally and nationally. Our attorneys understand the industry-specific characteristics of healthcare employers, including the relationships between administration, employees and medical staff as well as the industry's complex regulatory environment and Joint Commission and other accrediting requirements. Directly and deeply experienced in all facets of healthcare employment law, our attorneys assist organizations with issues such as maintaining a union-free workplace; ensuring compliance with the FLSA and state law requirements for pay practices; implementing enforceable non-competition agreements; creating practical and cost-effective drug-free workplace policies; counseling on successful discipline and termination procedures; and litigating labor and employment disputes before the EEOC, the NLRB, the Department of Labor and trying cases in federal and state courts nationwide.
