A boutique firm built around the law of work.
MG Legal, P.A. has spent nearly four decades on a single discipline: labor and employment law. We represent both employers and employees, in every phase of litigation, in every forum.
We don’t dabble. Employment law is what we do, all day, every day.
Founded in 1995, MG Legal is a boutique law firm focused on all aspects of labor and employment law — for both employers and employees. The firm has extensive experience representing plaintiffs and defendants through every phase of litigation, in state and federal courts, in arbitration, and before administrative agencies.
That dual perspective is deliberate. Having represented companies, we know how the other side prepares a case — and that makes us a sharper advocate for the professional sitting across the table. Having represented employees, we counsel companies on the risks that actually end up in a courtroom.
Most employment matters never see a courtroom. We prepare every one as if it will.
Four commitments on every matter.
Aligned
Flat fees and engagement caps when the matter allows — so our incentives match yours.
Direct
You speak with the partner running your case. Always. Not an intake line, not a rotating associate.
Patient
We move when it serves you, not when it bills well. Settlement and trial are both tools, not defaults.
Trial-ready
Every matter is prepared for the courtroom from day one. Preparation is leverage long before trial.
Two partners. Both sides of the table.
