Walker also provides ongoing proactive counseling to businesses to help manage their relationship with their employees to mitigate risk and retain key talent. He works with his clients to mitigate the wide-ranging pitfalls of employment law to handle sensitive investigations, protect trade secrets, implement proactive employment policies and procedures, and avoid distractions created by wage and hour claims, discrimination complaints, and government investigations.
