We provide legal insight and practical solutions for one of the most complex and highly regulated areas of business.

WilmerHale lawyers have decades of experience advising public and private companies in all aspects of mergers and acquisitions.

Our HR Services Group combines a deep understanding of the HR marketplace and best practices with seamless access to quality legal resources. We serve companies navigating all facets of human resources management, systems, policy development and legal compliance. Whether clients require consulting, contract services, training and development programs, or strategic staffing assistance, our HR professionals have the experience to help meet their goals.

The HR Services Group is a team of senior-level certified HR professionals (non-lawyers), also with decades of combined experience, who perform discrete HR projects and/or ongoing HR counseling and support for firm clients, including HR systems assessment and development, compensation and pay equity analyses, salary surveys, benefit plan assessment and design, talent acquisition, management training, affirmative action program development, compliance/audit support, and support for EEO efforts and development of diversity and inclusion programs.

Our HR consultants work to understand a client’s business plan and existing processes to design a customized menu of services that fits the company’s objectives and budget. From the challenges facing startups to the concerns of maturing companies, our HR professionals can provide comprehensive, timely and cost-effective solutions.   

The HR Services Group guides affirmative action program development and reporting (including EEO-1 and VETS-4212 reports), statistical analysis, self-audit monitoring support, and OFCCP audit support, teaming with our employment lawyers who bring affirmative action legal experience to ensure a unique complement of legal and HR proficiency for our clients at a highly competitive price point. Should an audit occur, our legal and HR affirmative action teams will jointly manage the audit process from the day the compliance review notice is received, through the many requests for information, possible on-site representation, and through closure, continually working to manage and minimize client risk at each step in the process. We are proud of our track record for successful closure of client audits.
