Plunkett Cooney, one of the Midwest’s oldest and most accomplished law firms, recently expanded its Labor & Employment Law Practice Group with the addition of four attorneys from the national law firm Dinsmore.
Frank T. Mamat, Dennis R. Boren, Erik G. Bradberry and Brian K. Mitzel have joined the firm’s Bloomfield Hills office.
A partner of the firm, Mamat utilizes his more than 50 years of experience to help companies, contractors, employers, lawmakers and trade associations resolve union matters, including contract negotiations, elections, union avoidance and labor arbitrations. He advises clients on noncompete agreements, unfair labor practice litigation, harassment suits, wage and hour issues and OSHA-MIOSHA safety matters.
An of counsel member of the firm, Boren focuses his practice on traditional labor law. He specializes in advising employers on compliance with the National Labor Relations Act, collective bargaining negotiations and arbitration proceedings.
Boren spent more than 40 years of his legal career in various attorney positions with the National Labor Relations Board, including 15 years serving as the regional attorney for the Michigan Region 7.
Bradberry concentrates his practice in the areas of labor and employment law, labor law and litigation. Admitted to practice in Colorado and Michigan, he represents organizations and individual clients in labor and employment law matters in Michigan’s state and federal courts.
Rounding out Plunkett Cooney’s new group of labor and employment attorneys is Mitzel, who concentrates his practice primarily on the defense of clients involved in employment liability litigation, as well as regulatory disputes that result in actions by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and Michigan Department of Civil Rights.
