About Us

We founded Lee Meier Burke to provide exceptional representation to individuals and organizations in employment disputes. After decades of practice at leading labor and employment firms, we saw–time and time again–cases where employees lost or settled for far less than the value of their claims because they were outmaneuvered by defense firms.

Now, we offer employees the same top-tier representation available to employers.

Our practice and approach to litigation is driven by these principles:

SPEED

We take on fewer cases so each one gets the attention it deserves. While some firms juggle high caseloads, we focus on building strong cases from the start—pressuring the defense early and keeping the advantage.

INNOVATION

We leverage and invest in technology to litigate and manage cases, including the latest in generative artificial intelligence. By pursuing an automation-first strategy, we reduce the possibility of overlooked facts, increase the velocity of our cases, and find things other lawyers miss. ​

CREATIVITY

Law is one of the few games where you change the rules by playing. We are committed to creating employee-friendly precedent and making novel arguments rather than simply follow the normal playbook. 

SUCCESS

Success means different things to different clients. We work with our clients to understand what success means to them and help them chart a path to achieve it.
