Effective Supervisor® 2013 Series
We know that everyone is looking for ways to cut costs right now - in every industry and at every level. However, in our opinion, these economic times are exactly the wrong time to cut the budget for legal compliance training. What we have learned from past economic fluctuations is that charges of discrimination and lawsuits climb when the economy falls. Combine investing less in training your supervisors with a climate where workers who are terminated cannot readily find another job and you might just have the perfect formula for a spike in employment claims and managing litigation.
In addition to preventing management mistakes that could create legal claims after a termination, effective training can help establish an important affirmative defense in the litigation of discrimination claims. As a result, cutting supervisory training could actually end up costing companies far more than they initially save.
We have a proven, cost-effective training approach with our Effective Supervisor programs. Although we update and refine the material every year, this will be the fourteenth consecutive year we have offered this course. Over the years, over 5,800 managers and supervisors have participated in this program which focuses on enhancing the knowledge and confidence of supervisors and managers in handling employee issues and employer compliance responsibilities. We teach from the perspective of the employer's rights; our goal is that supervisors leave empowered about their jobs, not scared of the laws. Our evaluations over the years tell us our approach is working.
This program has been approved for 6.0 hours of (General) recertification credit toward PHR, SPHR and GPHR recertification through the Human Resource Certification Institute (HRCI).

LMV Receives Top Super Lawyers and Chambers Ratings
We are pleased and proud to announce that seven of our attorneys were recognized by "Super Lawyers" in their 2013 ratings of labor, employment and benefits attorneys. Richard I. Lehr, David J. Middlebrooks, Albert L. Vreeland, II, Michael L. Thompson, Matthew W. Stiles, Donna Eich Brooks and Whitney R. Brown were rated as super lawyers, a rating fewer than 5% of all attorneys receive.
LMV was recognized by The Chambers 2012 Client's Guide to America's Leading Lawyers for Business as a tier 1 firm in our field, the sixth consecutive year we have received such recognition. Chambers stated that "interviewees are quick to praise this team's strong negotiation style and proactive advice..."
Conscientious that ratings such as these are a reflection of our friends' and clients' confidence in us, we thank you. We know we are "terminable at will," and we work daily to exceed your expectations.
