About Duane

Mr. Gilkey has extensive experience representing local, regional and national employers in all phases of labor and employment law. His practice deals with all federal and state laws affecting the employer-employee relationship including employment discrimination, wrongful discharge, federal contract compliance, occupational safety and health, wage and hour, unfair labor practices, collective bargaining and labor arbitration. Mr. Gilkey has successfully defended employers in many employment discrimination, wrongful termination and labor cases in state and federal courts. Past successes cannot be an assurance of future success because each case must be decided on its own merits.

In that regard, his practice includes the presentation of seminars and workshops on topical employment law issues to his clients' management personnel.
