How to Find a Labor Lawyer

To find a labor lawyer, contact the labor board and ask for names of lawyers in your local area.  Also, contact the government office for your county and see if you meet requirements for free or low cost legal assistance.

• Contact the labor board for your state to find a labor lawyer.  The labor board deals with labor disputes and can provide you with names of lawyers in your area.  These lawyers are a good choice because they will be familiar with the labor board and their investigations.  This is important so you can get the best assistance and communication with ongoing claims and labor disputes.


• Look for legal assistance through your county governmental office.  This legal assistance is offered to individuals in need who meet low income requirements.  Contact the government office in your area to see if you meet these requirements.  If you qualify for legal assistance you will be charged little or no money for a labor lawyer.  This is a good option if you have been fired and are unable to pay for a lawyer.


• Look for lawyers online, or in your local phone book that are experienced in labor law.  Contact the lawyers that you have found and set up consultation meetings.  Discuss your labor matter at these consultations, considering the lawyer that is most confident about your case.  Check qualifications and experience of this lawyer to make sure he is reputable.  Hire your lawyer once you are sure you have chosen the right one, and sign a contract with him.  Look through the contact carefully before you sign it making sure fees and pricing is correct.
