Considered one of the elite public sector teams in New York, we are one of the few full-service law firms to offer comprehensive counsel to public sector unions and their associated benefits funds, combining decades of practical experience with the resources of a national law firm.
We are relentless negotiators and creative problem solvers, serving our clients in connection with collective bargaining issues, contractual fact-finding and arbitration proceedings, and in improper practice proceedings before the New York State Public Employment Relations Board and the NYC Office of Collective Bargaining. We also guide our clients in the pursuit of labor law reform. Our litigators have served as labor representatives on the NYC Board of Collective Bargaining and as counsel for the NYC Municipal Labor Committee, the umbrella organization for the City’s municipal workers, in connection with litigation and legislative initiatives.
Our groundbreaking work in both litigation and collective bargaining has brought about positive changes regarding workplace safety, compensation, employee rights, pensions and other issues affecting public sector unions and their members.
"There is no better firm to advise on managing the intersection of politics, relationships and law, particularly in the area of labor relations."
"Stroock is the go-to firm for public sector unions for the most complex or novel issues. The team's long experience in this area and deep bench is essential to navigating a path forward."
"Stroock takes the time to get to know the client's operations, needs, sensitivities and realities in the field. They always keep in mind the practical aspects when working through legal issues. They always bring a big-picture awareness to everything they do."
