Government Investigations Lawyers
When your business is investigated by a government agency in an employment context, whether it’s the Office of Civil Rights, Office of Labor Standards, Washington Labor & Industries (L&I), Washington State Human Rights Commission (WSHRC), the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), or the U.S. Department of Labo,r you need experienced legal counsel on your side. Our attorneys have guided Washington employers of all sizes through audits, investigations, and litigation, protecting their interests every step of the way.
What to Expect During a Government Investigation
Government investigations can be triggered by employee complaints, audits, or agency enforcement actions. Common issues include:
-
- Discrimination or harassment claims
- Wage and hour audits
- Retaliation allegations
- Workplace safety complaints
Agencies may request documents, conduct interviews, and require written responses within tight deadlines. The process can be stressful and disruptive, but you don’t have to face it alone.
