Because people make the difference in an organization’s success, employee relations counsel is paramount to protecting a business. GSRM Law offers vast experience representing employers. Our corporate and commercial lawyers in Nashville have the experience to assist businesses and managers in understanding the federal and state laws that affect the employer/employee or business/contractor relationships.

Business as usual does not always apply to all market segments. Some industries are heavily regulated and demand precise insight on the rules, regulations and operational challenges which are encountered daily. Others require an in depth understanding of industry related practices and technologies. GSRM Law offers these deep and highly distinct pockets of experience across a broad range of specialty industries, such as dental, healthcare, retail, banking , and hospitality (including the regulation of alcoholic and malt beverages), among others.
