About Gregory Fidlon

Outstanding results at a fair price! I specialize in resolving workplace disputes in the most cost-effective manner. Our experienced team handles virtually all issues involving the employment relationship, including cases involving wrongful termination, discrimination, wage/hour and overtime pay, sexual harassment/hostile work environment, employment agreements, non-compete agreements, disability and medical leave, retaliation/whistleblower protection, workplace violence, health and safety regulations, breach of contract, misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of fiduciary duty, and other business torts. I frequently advise and represent employees who have been offered severance packages. I review the proposed severance agreement, provide feedback on the fairness and reasonableness of its terms, and handle negotiations with the employer. I am very experienced in the fast-growing area of wage/hour and overtime disputes under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Unlike most Atlanta employment law firms, I also represent federal government employees in connection with Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) complaints and also have a niche practice of representing physicians, nurses and other healthcare professionals in employment matters. I understand that litigation is a long and costly process that may be unattractive to many. Accordingly, when possible, I utilize efficient, cost-effective alternatives to litigation, such as settlement negotiations, mediation and arbitration. I also represent employees in civil service board appeals and unemployment appeal hearings before the Georgia Department of Labor.
