Law Firm Overview

The law firm of Pitt, McGehee, Palmer, Rivers & Golden was established in November of 1992 with its offices located in downtown Royal Oak, Michigan. The law firm specializes in employment litigation and personal injury actions.

Employee Representation:

Employment litigation is seldom simple. Cases are typically factually complex and often involve emotional intensity. Workplace environments are frequently politically sensitive, emotionally charged, and in constant flux. Long-term career relationships may be at stake. Motives for employment related actions are frequently obscured by, and intertwined with, employer and employee personalities.

As a result of these factors, many legal practitioners choose to turn to employment specialists who can offer advantages such as these to their clients:

• Knowledge of the practices of specific employers, based on long-term experience;
• Familiarity with the techniques and skills of attorneys representing employers;
• Constant review of the state of employment law and the ability to adjust the specifics of a client's claims accordingly;
• The ability to evaluate cases based on extensive experience and knowledge of the field; and
• Recognition and respect among the community of employment specialists.
  

At Pitt, McGehee, Palmer & Golden, we have targeted our practice, concentrating on providing quality representation in employment and personal injury cases. We believe this concentration enhances financial recovery for both settlement and trial scenarios.

We also evaluate potential cases for social values, considering the importance of promoting the rights of employees and the need to resist employer abuses in the workplace.

To meet these needs, we have developed flexible fee and cost reimbursement plans.

We honor Rule 1.5 sharing for referrals.
