Public Sector Unions

Bush Gottlieb has for decades represented state and local unions in the expanding area of public employment. Our practice in counseling and advocating for unions has embraced institutions representing tens of thousands of teachers, bus drivers, custodians and other school employees, county and municipal workers, professional employees and health care workers. In this area, our clients call upon us to advocate for them in the courts, before county boards of supervisors, boards of education and civil service commissions, and in the legislative corridors of city councils and Sacramento. On behalf of our public sector union clients, we are active in all three branches of government: adjudicating to obtain beneficial results in court and administrative agencies, lobbying and persuading executives to help and protect our clients, and drafting and arguing for better legislation to bolster their interests.
