Butler Snow’s Labor and Employment team has decades of experience in assisting employers in many industries in preventing the causes of unionization and successfully resisting union organizing. As unions have declined over the past three decades, the actual experience of most law firms in this practice area has diminished. However, our team includes attorneys with substantial recent experience in combating a variety of unions that have been particularly active.
In
the 1950s - even before our firm was formed - Butler and Snow teamed
up with O'Mara, Stevens & Cannada to defend the biggest Officers'
and Directors' liability case the State had ever seen. Together,
they wrote the foundational chapter in Mississippi corporate governance
law, seeKnox Glass Bottle Co. v. Underwood, 89 So.2d
799 (Miss. 1956). Today Butler Snow appellate lawyers continue not
only to write and rewrite Mississippi's law, but
to shape the legal climate across the country through both written
and oral advocacy.We enjoy an extensive federal
and state appellate practice, often involving novel or complex legal
issues, in all fields of law. These include appeals both of cases tried
by Butler Snow and cases tried by other firms, as well as the preparation
of amici briefs on behalf of trade associations and other interested
organizations.
