Welcome to OELA

The Ohio Employment Lawyers Association (OELA) members are attorneys who dedicate 70% or more of their employment practice to representing people, not companies. OELA attorneys vindicate employee rights, such as discrimination, sexual harassment and wrongful discharge. OELA is a state affiliate of the National Employment Lawyers Association ("NELA").

The OELA website offers news, Q & A, case summaries, wiki articles, blog articles, OELA employment rights library, and more. You must be a current OELA member and must register for access to the Members Only areas of this website. If you are currently a member and need to register for access, change your registration, or find your login information, contact Neil Klingshirn. To join OELA, click here.

Employment law is an especially complicated area and the facts of any particular employment situation will have an impact upon how the law is applied to that situation. If you have questions or require legal advice, then you should retain or talk to an attorney for that purpose. There are OELA members throughout the State of Ohio who are more than willing to sit down with you to discuss your particular situation.
