With a mastery of labor economics, econometrics, statistics, and finance, Analysis Group’s Labor & Employment practice offers focused, strategic insights and expertise across a wide range of issues, including: compensation, recruitment, hiring, promotion, placement, and disciplinary and termination practices.
Our professional staff, in frequent collaboration with premier academic economists and statisticians, conducts rigorously executed analyses in support of litigation and risk management. We have a demonstrated ability to work with complex databases and formidable analytical problems. Nationally recognized labor and employment attorneys look to Analysis Group for expert witness testimony, compliance with employment regulations, and proactive assessments of their efforts to achieve diversity goals.
Specific areas of focus include:
Class Certification
Our empirical assessments of class certification focus specifically on the relevant issues of the typicality and commonality of claims of proposed class members, and the representativeness of those claims.
Economic Loss Valuation
In cases involving widely divergent employee populations, from blue-collar workers to corporate executives, financiers, and other high-net-worth individuals, Analysis Group has taken on many of the most challenging economic loss valuations of recent years.
Employment Discrimination Litigation
We work closely with leading employment litigators to evaluate claims of discrimination on the basis of age, race, gender, religion, and national origin in employment class action and “pattern and practice” litigations.
Pay Equity Reviews
Analysis Group takes an exacting approach to studies of compensation equity.
Proactive Adverse Impact Studies
Often, when employers undertake reorganization and workforce reductions, they do so without much time to gather information about the potential risks entailed.
Wage and Hour Regulation Compliance
Effective compliance with FLSA or state wage and hour regulations, or response to specific allegations of violations, often involves review of companies' record keeping or correction of historical data.
