Your managers have training on Employment Law, why don’t the workers?
Mr. Attig is founder of the Attig Law Firm, a Firm that regularly represents Federal Employees before the EEOC, MSPB, OWCP, OPM and OWCP. Clients, potential clients, and various employee organizations have commented on how helpful Mr. Attig’s straightforward and candid explanations of Federal Employment laws, processes, and forums have been to them.
Mr. Attig is available to come to your organization, union, workplace, or association to speak and/or train your members on topics affecting Federal Employees and their Rights in the Workplace. For many Federal Employee unions, councils, locals and chapters that want to offer this training to their stewards, representatives, attorneys or officers, we can often provide these seminars at no cost to the union.
Mr. Attig’s presentations and training can help your Union Stewards better represent their membership. The presentations and training can help your organization promote better awareness of the rights of protected groups in the Workplace. It is a tenet of the Attig Law Firm that “Information is Power”, and Mr. Attig’s presentations and seminars can help your group become more powerful with better training and information.
Common topics that Mr. Attig can discuss are:
1) “The New and Improved Americans With Disabilities Act: Requesting Reasonable Accommodation in the Federal Workplace.”

Most presentations last between 1 and 3 hours, but can be specifically suited for your organizations’ purposes and needs.
