Carano, Sergio A.
Akron, OH
For over 20 years, my law practice career has focused in the area of employment and labor law on behalf of a wide spectrum of employers. I provide direction to employers concerning sensitive matters such as employment discrimination, sexual harassment, wrongful discharge, and employee privacy and discipline. I draft and negotiate employment agreements and severance agreements, as well as guide employers on unfair competition and trade secret issues. I proactively counsel employers on both the legal and business ramifications in all aspects of employment relationships and business transactions. This includes developing and drafting employment handbooks, creating workplace policies, and conducting in-house training to assist efficient operations and litigation risk avoidance. I possess extensive knowledge and experience in advising employers and ensuring compliance with the full range of state and federal employment laws.These include the Age Discrimination Enforcement Act, Older Workers Benefits Protection Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, Fair Labor Standards Act, civil rights statutes, employment based immigration, pregnancy laws, whistleblower laws, retaliation laws, and all related federal and state common law tort and contract claims. An important component of my practice is providing legal services to management in traditional labor relationships as governed by the National Labor Relations Act. I coordinate anti-union campaigns, oversee elections, and directly participate in collective bargaining sessions. I navigate employers through labor agreement administration, labor grievances, and arbitration proceedings. I have appeared before the National Labor Relations Board to decertify unions, to defend against unfair labor practice charges, and in unit representation and clarification hearings. My labor and employment practice results in intrinsic connections to the business affairs of my clients. This allows me to continue to grow my practice by assisting my clients with corporate transactions, intellectual property (software) agreements, and commercial litigation. I am often regarded as the outside general counsel to my clients.
