Employer Help

Employer Representation through Employer Help

Employer Representation through Employer Help


While some employers only need help when a problem or need arises, the Cain Law Firm is dedicated to helping employers manage employment issues before a problem arises. To manage employment issues properly, employers need to be able to contact their employment attorney as often as necessary without worrying about expensive legal bills. To resolve this, the firm has developed a program called Employer Help. Through the Employer Help program, employers have access to quality legal advice on an ongoing basis to ensure compliance with workplace laws and benefits laws. But rather than charge on a per hour basis, Employer Help gives employers a set monthly fee that helps employers:
  • control legal costs;
  • stay up-to-date on changes affecting the workplace;
  • update employee handbooks, employee benefits plans, and employment agreements;
  • deal with day-to-day employment issues; and
  • maintain employment policies that will help avoid legal trouble.

Through Employer Help, the intent is to prevent employment issues. However, in the event a client is threatened with a lawsuit, the firm can handle the case throughout the litigation process.
