Joseph L. Braccio

Since 1986, Joe has counseled private sector employers on the full range of labor and employee relations issues, with particular concentration in contract negotiations, contract administration, arbitration, representation of employers before the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), strike management, and employee discipline and discharge cases. Joe’s extensive experience includes representing private employers in the industrial manufacturing, food, acute and long-term health care, construction, high-technology, chemical, and service sectors of the economy. He also regularly counsels employers on wage and hour issues, prevailing rate problems, and employment discrimination.

His many years of experience and deep understanding of the law enable him to analyze client labor and employment problems, and develop and pursue with determination creative solutions to those problems to achieve clients’ goals. Solving problems without extended and expensive litigation is Joe’s first priority, but if necessary, Joe is always prepared to defend clients in adversarial proceedings before arbitrators, the NLRB, and other agencies. He has a 30-year track record of success in his field and that could not have been achieved without strong and well-honed advocacy skills.

Joe exclusively practices U.S. law and is admitted to practice in New York.
