    Oct. 6, 2010 – State Bar of Wisconsin PINNACLE™ has released its latest supplement to Wisconsin Employment Law, a comprehensive and practical guide widely used by Wisconsin attorneys and human resources professionals alike. For more than 15 years now, Wisconsin Employment Law has been the source for valuable, practical, and timely information on this complex and critical practice area.

    Although Wisconsin Employment Law primarily focuses on Wisconsin law, it also discusses the effect of federal law on Wisconsin employment. The book offers guidance on when and whether federal law preempts state law, and how to choose the appropriate forum. In this and all other topics, Wisconsin Employment Law takes an objective, neutral, and balanced approach, exploring both employer and employee perspectives, addressing employee claims as well as employer defenses.

    Wisconsin Employment Law is organized by topic so that readers can quickly find a complete discussion of any employment problem and the applicable law. The book opens with an overview of major state and federal employment laws. Major topics covered include hiring and firing, wages and hours, employee benefits, occupational safety and health, worker’s compensation, and unemployment insurance. Intensely litigated areas of employment law, such as wrongful discharge, discrimination, and noncompetition agreements, are discussed in detail.

    Originally published in 1994 and published in its fourth edition in 2009, the three volumes of Wisconsin Employment Law represent the combined efforts of more than 25 attorney-authors from Wisconsin law firms, and more than 50 employment law experts who reviewed the original book to ensure accuracy and balance. Walter F. Kelly and Thomas W. Scrivner served as the advisors on the original publication. Wisconsin Employment Law reflects the most recent developments in statutory and case law and is supplemented regularly.

    Wisconsin Employment Law is available to members for $195 plus tax, shipping, and handling. Purchasers who subscribe to the State Bar of Wisconsin’s automatic supplementation service will receive future updates for 10 percent off the regular update price. This title is also available in electronic format as part of the State Bar’s online library, Books UnBound™ for $129, and is automatically available to those who subscribe to the full Books UnBound library.
