Employment Law Update | Workplace Conduct

The National Labor Relations Board has reinstated a previous standard for evaluating when employers may discipline employees for offensive or abusive conduct that occurs alongside otherwise protected workplace activity. The change affects how employee misconduct and protected activity may be evaluated in workplace disciplinary decisions.

What does this development mean for employers?

Read the article below for more details:

To discuss how employment law developments may affect your business or to schedule a consultation with our Employment Law attorneys, please call 239-298-5200.

The NLRB reinstated a Trump-era standard for evaluating offensive employee conduct during protected activity, giving employers greater latitude to impose discipline.

Family Law | Fact or Fiction?

“Everything is automatically divided 50/50 in a Florida divorce.”
FICTION.

Florida follows the principle of equitable distribution. While courts generally begin with the premise that marital assets and liabilities should be divided equally, certain circumstances may justify an unequal distribution. The classification of property as marital or nonmarital can also affect what is subject to division.

Every situation is different. If you have questions about property division or other family law matters in Florida, contact our Family Law team at 239-298-5200.
