We are very knowledgeable on handling an agency’s response to employee grievances and personnel actions, such as suspensions, demotions, denial of within-grade pay increases, transfers and terminations. Our attorneys have extensive experience in providing dispute resolution services and hold themselves to the highest standard when doing so. Our services offer a fair, neutral, timely, and cost-efficient forum that enables both employers and employees to effectively resolve employment disputes. Our history shows extensive experience and success in litigating adverse personnel actions through the Merit Systems Protection Board, Office of Personnel Management, and the Office of Special Counsel.
Helping military personnel retrieve back-pay compensation
The attorneys at Tully Rinckey PLLC are particularly committed to protecting the rights of servicemembers and veterans. In November 2007, the firm formed a partnership with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) to act as co-counsel in prosecuting their members’ claims of discrimination under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. This collaboration with the largest federal employee union in the nation has given the firm extensive experience in working with outside entities to provide exemplary legal services.
