Willig, Williams & Davidson

Willig, Williams & Davidson is one of the largest and most respected union-side labor law firms in the United States. Founded in 1979, our accomplished and diverse legal team focuses on representing labor unions, employee benefit funds, individual working people and their families. For more than 35 years, our mission has remained the same - to level the playing field by helping unions and working families navigate a complex and sometimes intimidating legal system.

Willig, Williams & Davidson helps our clients develop real-world solutions to complex legal problems. Our lawyers in PA address issues creatively and teach clients to think in new ways. We work with our clients to find practical and efficient solutions to the problems that they face. We put our energy and expertise into action to help our union clients win strong wages, benefits and job security for their members, on a variety of legal fronts, including national, regional and local contract negotiations, dispute resolution through mediation, arbitration and court litigation; representation of employee benefit trust funds in tax and benefit law compliance issues; representation of individuals in discrimination matters, advocacy for injured workers, and assistance with individual union members' personal matters.

"Though there are many benefits to being represented by our firm, the breadth and depth of our practice areas are foremost," said Deborah Willig. "We have the ability, for example, to walk down the hall and discuss the interplay in a given situation between an individual's contractual rights, pension benefits and potential workers' compensation claim. We deal with the legal, practical and real-world implications of each matter to more efficiently and effectively represent our clients."

Willig, Williams & Davidson is one of a handful of mid-sized firms in the United States that specializes in negotiation and litigation on behalf of employees who have suffered discrimination at work and who do not have the protection of a union. In an employment dispute, workers are often pitted against companies that have substantial resources to commit to defending against employee claims. Because we as a firm are committed to the representation of workers, we have assembled a premier group of litigation attorneys with the experience, resources and commitment that are necessary to win the fight against all forms of workplace discrimination and harassment.

"There are few things in life that are more devastating than the loss of dignity that accompanies a discriminatory termination. The loss of valued employment for some clients is nearly as difficult to manage as losing a loved one. The legal team at Willig, Williams & Davidson is committed to helping clients and their families with the anxiety created by job loss and to find solutions that help them move forward in their lives and careers," said Willig.
