Stoneman, Chandler & Miller, LLP

Stoneman, Chandler & Miller LLP (SCM) was originally formed in 1945 as a traditional labor law firm. Since then we have evolved into a full service labor, employment and education law firm engaged in the representation of public and private employers and public schools.
SCM counsels and assists clients in a broad spectrum of labor, personnel and employment related issues ranging from the application of wage and hour laws to dealing with the National Labor Relations Act, Davis Bacon Act, OSHA, COBRA, FMLA and the ever changing anti-discrimination laws and accompanying regulations. We have significant experience in the development and implementation of personnel policies, preparation of affirmative action programs, the handling of employee problems, establishment of employee communication programs (e.g. employee handbooks), and the training of managers, and supervisors. We can assist employers in the creation and administration of salary and fringe benefit programs as well.
Our experience also extends to over fifty public school districts, including charter schools, in Massachusetts. We are frequently called upon to review and evaluate cases, and to work with clients to problem solve and develop strategies for handling disputes including special education and employee arbitrations. We advise clients on matters involving public records, open meeting, conflict of interest, collective bargaining, grievance and arbitration, employee discipline and IDEA, Section 504 and Chapter 71B.
SCM attorneys appear in various forums, such as the Massachusetts Bureau of Special Education Appeals, the Massachusetts Division of Labor Relations, the National Labor Relations Board, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination, American Arbitration Association, and state and federal courts.
