At Community Labor Legal Consulting, we are distinctive in our exclusive focus on representing local labor organizations operating independently of state or national union control. Traditionally, legal services for local unions have been provided by attorneys working in-house for state or national unions, or by law firms retained by those larger organizations. In many cases, local union access to legal counsel is determined by officials who may not fully understand or prioritize the local concerns that matter most to your members.

Our approach is different. We work directly for local labor clients, with our full attention and duty focused on the specific needs of your community. Unlike firms that represent either employers or unions with state or national affiliations, we are dedicated solely to supporting independent local unions. We believe that the best understanding of what your organization needs comes from within your community. This commitment to strengthening independent local labor organizations is what sets us apart and drives our mission to empower your union.
