Engaged in all aspects of the practice of labor relations and employment law including federal and state court proceedings, National Labor Relations Board proceedings, state labor agency proceedings, arbitration and negotiation of collective bargaining agreements, both in the private and public sectors.
  • Represented the construction industry in Massachusetts, both management and labor, in a challenge to then Mayor Kevin White’s residency executive order.
