WHAT WE DO

The Nolan Lim Law Firm focuses on the many practice areas that are Employment Law. Our Employment Legal Services include assisting clients using the appropriate strategy to get the best result, and may include one or more of these:

Advice & Problem Solving – Not all matters require filing a lawsuit. We advise clients and provide advice to help you decide the best course of action.

Litigation – When advice alone will not resolve an issue, litigation or defending a lawsuit in court is often necessary. Once litigation has begun, unless there is some kind of resolution or settlement, the parties will try the case before a judge or jury. Our team is not afraid to litigate your case in state or federal courts.

Negotiation & Mediation – Very few cases ever make it to trial. Most cases can be settled through negotiation between the parties or through mediation. Negotiation is a process where the attorneys of both parties work with each other to resolve or settle the dispute. This can be an effective and economic way to resolve employment matters. In the more formal process of Mediation, a neutral third party called a mediator helps facilitate settlement between the parties. Mediators are typically former attorneys or judges who specialize in mediation. Because of mediator’s extensive experience in evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of a case, they are often effective in helping the parties reach a settlement, for far less than going to trial.

Administrative Hearings – Some employment disputes go before state and federal administrative agencies. The proceedings are much less formal than those of a courtroom but have specific procedures and rules of evidence. We assist and represent employees in many types of administrative hearings with the same diligence as if your case were held in a more formal court setting.

Appeals – When a case is not successful at trial or in an administrative proceeding, that party may have the right to appeal the decision to an appellate court. Our team can handle your appeal in both state and federal appellate courts and have a successful track record in doing so.

The team at the Nolan Lim Law will work with you whatever your need – advice, arbitration, mediation, litigation, administrative hearing, or appeal.
