Davenport Gerstner & McClure was the first law firm in Contra Costa County, California which dedicated itself to representing management in all aspects of employment and labor relations law.

The firm's areas of concentration include wrongful termination, sex harassment and employment discrimination (sex, race, age, disability, etc.) litigation, as well as traditional union - employer labor relations matters such as collective bargaining, representation elections, unfair labor practice litigation, and grievance/arbitration handling.

Each of Davenport Gerstner & McClure's attorneys emphasizes the representation of management in employment and labor relations matters.  Our lawyers have extensive experience practicing before federal and State courts and administrative agencies. 

We have worked closely with our clients on many of today's key employment issues -- sexual harassment, employment discrimination (including race, sex, disability, and pregnancy discrimination), wrongful termination, at will employment, employee handbooks and policies, confidentiality agreements, employee substance abuse and employee privacy rights, union-employer relations, collective bargaining negotiations, unfair labor practices and grievance representation, among many others.

In addition to employer-employee issues, the firm also provides general business legal services to its clients.

The firm has an "AV" rating – the highest rating awarded by the respected Martindale-Hubbell Legal Directory.
