Experience Counts. Sedey Harper’s attorneys have devoted their legal careers to the practice of employment law and fighting injustice in the work place. Our lawyers have litigated hundreds of cases in the State Courts of Missouri and in Federal Courts around the country, including the United States Supreme Court and the Supreme Court of Missouri. Our team of lawyers includes successful trial lawyers who know their way around a courtroom. But most importantly, our firm’s years of experience allow us to evaluate a case and guide you to the best resolution of your claim. In some cases, a settlement and severance package may be the best solution. In other cases, a fight to the finish is necessary to correct mistreatment of an employee.
