There are many different ways to be an effective pro-union lawyer, and different scenarios call for different tactics: join us for a moderated conversation about different approaches pro-union lawyers utilize for effective organizing and bargaining.

Panelists Richard McCracken (McCracken Stemerman & Holsberry) and David Rosenfeld (Weinberg Roger & Rosenfeld) are both highly experienced labor attorneys with diverse experiences and approaches to labor law. The panel will be moderated by Grande Lum, SLS Senior Lecturer of Law and Director of the Gould Center for Conflict Resolution.

Speakers will outline the three main doors for labor organizing—National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) litigation, direct action within the boundaries of the law, and direct action outside the boundaries of the law—and discuss the pros, cons, and applicability of each approach.
