Free Legal Consultations
Through an unprecedented new benefit program, members of the International Cemetery and Funeral Association can now access free legal consultations regarding labor relations, human resource management and employment law. Attorney Michael Pepperman of the Labor Relations and Employment Law department at Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel LLP (ORM&H), is available to address questions on topics ranging from hiring and firing, to employee privacy and workplace violence, to wages and hours, to equal employment opportunity and wrongful discharge issues.
Employment-related matters are concerns for all employers, large and small. This is an area prone to legal pitfalls. Frequent changes in federal and state legislation, as well as new court rulings, make it difficult for businesses to keep current on what they must do to remain compliant with the law.
Ask yourself: Have I ever hired, disciplined, demoted, reassigned or fired an employee? Has an employee ever asked for leave, time off or a workplace accommodation, or complained about the behavior of another employee? Do I need a policy on what to keep in an employee's personal file? Do I need to have an effective employee complaint and resolution procedure in place? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may need to consult with an attorney.
All ICFA members current on their dues may now call ORM&H for unlimited telephone consultations. And if you require additional assistance, ORM&H will provide its exceptional legal services at special rates. ORM&H, established almost a century ago, has offices in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware and serves clients throughout the country.
Michael Pepperman, Esq., has spoken on labor and employment issues at several ICFA conferences and regional industry meetings. To take advantage of this new benefit, call him at (215) 665-3032.
