Spengler & Agans, PLLC, represents both employers and employees in labor and employment matters.

Dedicated Labor and Employment Lawyers Protecting Workplace Rights

Workplace disputes implicate not only our sense of dignity and place in the world, but also interpersonal conflict in our most important relationships. Employment matters also sometimes involve allegations of serious misconduct, including whistleblower claims. Labor and employment law is also a key part of our comprehensive business law services, helping companies and professionals navigate evolving workplace regulations and prevent costly disputes.

Adapting to a Changing Workforce

The prototypical employment relationship has changed drastically, as an increasing number of workers transition from a lengthy career with one employer to a “gig economy” with less protection and potentially more flexibility. The critical distinction between employers and independent contractors—and the related legal obligations—is in a state of flux, with frequent changes from one administration to the next.

Proactive Legal Strategies for Employers

Employers must implement various state and federal laws in a fair and consistent manner. The best defense against an employment action is a proactive approach focused on adopting and implementing lawful employment policies.

Representing Employees and Employers in Complex Disputes

Our firm handles a diverse array of employment litigation matters. We represent both employees and employers in claims for unpaid overtime and wages, unlawful termination, non-compete and trade secret matters, and whistleblower suits. Charlotte litigation partner Eric Spengler has experience in administrative law matters before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the North Carolina Office of Administrative Hearings (for state employees), and the federal and state Departments of Labor. He has tried employment cases in state and federal court and in private arbitration proceedings.
