Weinberg, Roger & Rosenfeld
A Law Firm For The People Who Keep America Working Weinberg, Roger & Rosenfeld is one of the nation’s leading firms representing unions and working people in all aspects of labor and employment law. We represent unions, employee benefit plans, and individual employees in federal and state courts and before administrative agencies throughout the country. We provide counsel to assist unions in developing legal strategies for organizing, representation, negotiation, and contract enforcement. Our firm advises employee benefit plans in support of their mission to provide retirement, health and welfare, and other benefits earned by workers through their employment. We provide guidance to our clients about the constantly changing legal environment and its implications. In serving unions and benefit plans, our practice ranges far beyond labor law to civil rights, environmental compliance, real estate, bankruptcy, campaign finance, catastrophic torts, and many other areas of the law that impact our clients. Because we are the largest union-side labor firm in the country, we can handle major litigation as well as provide advice and counsel in many specialized fields of legal practice. In addition to our union-related practice, we represent the broader interests of working people by undertaking class actions and other lawsuits to enforce wage and hour laws, anti-discrimination laws, and employee benefit laws on behalf of employees not represented by unions. Very few law firms are founded upon political and social philosophies rather than for economic gain. Weinberg, Roger and Rosenfeld was founded on the principle that working people are entitled to the best of legal representation in an economy and social system that was not designed with them in mind. The firm sees itself as a part of the labor movement, along with the labor unions and working people whom it represents. We believe in the old labor motto: “An injury to one is an injury to all.”
