TAM Employment law group has been active in defending employers from claims since litigation in this arena first became en vogue. We have defended corporations and public entities involved in a wide range of substantive employment litigation.

Defending cases in this rapidly-developing area of the law requires skill in both employment law and litigation. TAM's Employment group brings both of these competencies to our clients, substantially increasing the likelihood that these high-risk, high-expense cases can be resolved efficiently and effectively.

Because of the nuances of employment law and the multitude of potential claims an employer may face, our team regularly defends state and federal Title VII claims brought by workers in both agency actions and litigation in court. TAM's Employment Group regularly represent employers facing investigations and hearings before government agencies, including the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Colorado Division of Civil Rights. These defended matters include the defense of the whole variety of alleged employment violations, including:

• Discrimination
• Wrongful termination/discharge
• Harassment
• Retaliation
• Wage and hour claims
• Breach of contract
• ERISA claims

In addition, TAM's Employment group assists corporate clients in the enforcement of non-compete and non-solicitation claims, as well as misappropriation of trade secret and other confidential information. Our clients who maintain regional and national markets for their products and services regularly consult with and use TAM to insititue actions against former employees who breach agreements concerning prohibited marketing, client poaching, and disclosure of proprietary corporate processes.
