Managing employment relationships requires adherence to federal and state statutes and regulations, with administrative guidance and court rulings providing yet more complexity. Gallian Welker & Associates offers representation in courts and before state and federal agencies such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), and the Utah Labor Commission. We help businesses establish procedures to comply with labor and employment laws and to defend their actions when challenged. We also represent employees whose rights in the workplace have been ignored.

We help Employees with workplace accidents and injustices in St. George, UT and Las Vegas, NV

We have represented many employees whose wages have not been properly paid or who have been the victim of discrimination in the workplace because of their age, gender, race, or limitations. We have also helped many employees injured in the workplace to receive the workers' compensation benefits they deserve. We start with a consultation to review the facts and to give the employee an idea of options available and likely outcomes. Sometimes just knowing what's available can provide a sense of relief and a sense of direction.

We help Employers navigate the maze through Prevention and Defensive.
