Corporate Social Accountability Attorneys in Alabama
Proponents of corporate social responsibility
Edwards, Belser & Smith is at the forefront of the movement to challenge corporate abuse to protect the public interest. Our firm recognizes the importance of corporate social responsibility programs and makes it a priority to ensure that businesses conduct themselves in accordance with the highest ethical and professional standards. Our attorneys represent the public in environmental sustainability claims and employees in workplace diversity, inclusion and freedom from harassment lawsuits. Our goal is to positively influence the course of legislation and regulations affecting consumers and investors on a case-by-case basis.
Environmental exposures and corporate accountability
Exposure to dangerous, hazardous or toxic substances resulting from irresponsible corporate conduct can have irreversible and enduring health consequences for generations of people in a given community. Our attorneys are dedicated advocates of the injured and disabled who help you take action against the individual or entity responsible for poisoning the air, the water or the environmental sustainability of a given community. Our firm has waged and won lawsuits against corporations who have behaved irresponsibly and we can help you too by getting your case heard in a court of law.
Diversity, inclusion and freedom from harassment
Employers are not immune from lawsuits resulting from improper conduct in the workplace. Our attorneys have compelled changes in corporate conduct through lawsuits in which we demonstrated discrimination in hiring or firing practices, prosecuted claims of workplace harassment or established a basis for an equal pay claim. Our goal is to establish a prima facie case for misconduct to improve the quality of employee treatment and improve the application of workplace practices.
