About
I have been practicing labor and employment law since I graduated from Marquette University Law School in 1982. I joined Krukowski & Costello, S.C. in 1980 and became a shareholder in 1986. Majority of my practice centers on matters arising under the National Labor Relations Act, including union organizing and unfair labor practices brough by or against labor organizations, NLRB proceedings, arbitrations and labor audits. I regularly negotiate collective bargaining agreementgs and Title VII litigation and matters involving disability, discrimination, employment contracts, wage and hour issues, worker's compensation, unemployment insurance and OSHA. A significant portion of my practice involves non-compete and confidentiality agreement litigation. I am named to the list of Top One Hundred Labor Attorneys in the United States complied by the Labor Relations Institute, Inc. and selected for inclusion in the 2010 - 2014 editions of the Best Lawyers in America, the 2013 edition of Wisconsin's Best Lawyers in the specialty of Labor and Employment Law, the 2012 edition of Wisconsin's Top Rated Lawyers and, inclusion as a Key Individual since 2011 in Chambers USA America's Leading Lawyers for Business. I am admitted to practice in Wisconsin and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Tenth Circuits and the District of Columbia. I have litigated cases in many state courts including Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Nebraska and Indiana; the Supreme Courts of Iowa and Nebraska; federal courts in the District of Columbia, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Texas and Michigan; and before the NLRB, the Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission and numerous federal and state agencies and arbitrators throughout the country. In my free time I like to ride my bike, collect Neue Sachlichkeit art and spend time with my wife and two daughters. I presented a lecture at the Northwestern University Block Museum of Art on "War and Weimer Art."
