WORKPLACE PRACTICES

Employers and their insurance carriers often turn to GWB's Workplace Practices Group for assistance with workers compensation and employment law. Senior Shareholder Mills Gallivan, has over 30 years of experience working with Workers' Compensation, and is uniquely qualified to serve as Workplace Practices Group leader along with Michelle Yarbrough. Our team of attorneys assists employment litigation clients in Greenville, SC and Charlotte, NC in various employment law matters.

GWB's workers' compensation attorneys are leaders within their field. They have extensive experience and success in representing employers and their carriers in hearings and appeals, including complex cases and significant issues of first impression. In addition, the workers' compensation team helps clients identify ways which to reduce their exposure and lower their costs. GWB's workers' compensation attorneys are also frequent speakers at seminars and have authored many publications to assist employers in managing the often-frustrating workers' compensation claims with which they are faced.

GWB's employment team has a strong litigation track record in the state, federal and appellate courts. "We have been extremely successful in obtaining summary judgment for our clients in the vast majority of employment matters we handle," Gallivan says. The employment litigation team also exhibits a problem-solving mentality, helping clients manage a range of day-to-day issues, from concerns about disciplinary actions, FMLA issues and equal employment decisions, to the content and legality of employee handbooks.
