Florida Labor & Employment Lawyers

Perez Mayoral, P.A. handles a wide range of employment litigation and counseling matters. Our services include day-to-day employment advice and counsel, drafting employment handbooks and policies, conducting workplace investigations, and ensuring wage and hour compliance. On the litigation front, we defend employers through every stage of employment disputes – from pre-suit negotiations through trial verdict and appeals – in cases involving discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, retaliation, and other employment claims. We provide both preventive counsel to minimize legal risks and comprehensive litigation defense at every phase of legal proceedings.

Yes, we offer virtual and telephonic consultations to accommodate employers who cannot visit our office in person. Virtual consultations are convenient and allow us to provide legal advice and support regardless of your location.

For your initial consultation, please provide any relevant documents such as employment policies, contracts, correspondence related to employment matters, and any documentation pertaining to ongoing workplace issues, claims, or litigation.

Our fee structure follows standard litigation firm practices. We typically work on an hourly basis with a retainer. Here’s how it works: clients provide an initial retainer that is deposited into our trust account. We only deduct from this retainer as work is performed on your case. If we complete your matter before exhausting the retainer, you receive a full refund of any unused funds. This transparent approach ensures you only pay for the actual work performed on your case. Retainer amounts vary depending on the complexity of your matter and the scope of work requested, which we can discuss during your consultation.

The process begins with an initial consultation and thorough analysis of your dispute. We then apply our knowledge and experience in employment law to develop a strategic path forward that best serves your interests as an employer. While certain approaches may appear optimal in theory, our years of litigation experience have taught us that the most effective strategy often requires looking beyond conventional solutions. We focus on implementing approaches that deliver real- world results, whether through pre-suit negotiations, mediation, or litigation. Our goal is to resolve matters efficiently while protecting your interests, with a strategy carefully tailored to achieve the best possible outcome for your business.

Federal and state courts have been working to tighten litigation deadlines in recent years. For cases in litigation (where a lawsuit has been filed), we typically expect state court cases to resolve within 12 to 18 months, with federal cases following similar timelines. However, the actual duration can vary depending on the complexity of your case. Cases resolved through pre-suit negotiations or mediation can often be concluded more quickly.
