Panoramica

Trevor J. Hardy focuses his practice on employment litigation and providing advice and counsel to employers. His experience includes partnering with clients to develop comprehensive strategies to achieve compliance with employee leave and accommodation statutes and regulations. Trevor has extensive knowledge of animal accommodations and routinely helps clients navigate complicated animal-related issues in the workplace and in places of public accommodation.

Trevor has first-chaired over a dozen arbitrations before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), the American Arbitration Association, National Arbitration and Mediation, and JAMS, all dealing with employment-related claims involving termination, investigations, expungement of termination-related disclosures and customer dispute information, labor grievances, wage and hour, and/or discrimination.

A significant portion of Trevor’s practice involves representing employers before federal and state courts and administrative agencies, with an emphasis on class and collective wage and hour matters involving minimum wage and overtime allegations, with a particular focus on tipped employees, and individual claims and investigations under Title VII, the ADA, the FMLA, and state equivalents.

Prior to joining Littler, Trevor worked in the complex business litigation and employment litigation departments in the Cleveland office of a full-service law firm. He also has public sector experience after serving as a municipal law attorney.
