He counsels clients on employment issues including: employment discrimination and retaliation, civil rights, disabilities, family and medical leave, wage and hour matters, military leave, employment policies, and employment agreements.

The College was the vision of a number of the Fellows. The idea was to further establish this profession in all its aspects as one uniquely important to the world of labor and employment law, individual rights, collective bargaining and dispute resolution. The College was established in 1995 through an initiative of the Council of The Section of Labor and Employment Law of the American Bar Association.
