KHPP

In January 2002, in recognition of the depth of our Firm’s labor background, then Governor James E. McGreevey appointed Albert G. Kroll, Esq., to serve as the Commissioner of the Labor & Workforce Development for the State of New Jersey. The Firm’s historical commitment to organized labor adds a heightened level of credibility and knowledge to the prosecution of cases where organized labor’s interests are at stake. Our attorneys are constantly developing new liability theories and damage models to protect the financial security and health of unions and their members. Those lawsuits are geared not only toward recovering monies that were wrongfully diverted from pension and welfare funds by acts of corporate fraud and greed, but also toward enabling individual union members to recover for their pain and suffering and other out-of-pocket expenses associated with wrongful terminations, wage and hour claims, and other acts of malfeasance.

KHPP has aggressive, court-tested attorneys who apply an unprecedented level of knowledge and experience to protect the rights of the hardest working people in New Jersey – Union families. Whether protecting the rights of unions at the collective bargaining table or in a court of law, KHPP has a proven track record for getting results.

In addition, we are prepared to advise clients on programs to prevent future employment related legal problems in the workplace. We routinely evaluate and prepare employee handbooks, employment agreements, sexual harassment policies, drug and alcohol policies, privacy policies for electronic communications, promotion and discharge practices, and affirmative action programs. Our attorneys are also skilled collective bargaining negotiators and regularly obtain favorable collective bargaining agreement provisions for our clients.
