Gregory A. Miller's practice encompasses a range of employer counseling and employment litigation issues in both state and federal court including defending employers against FLSA collective actions and related state law class actions. Greg is a member of the Executive Committee of the firm's Labor and Employment Law Section. Greg defends employers against claims for discrimination, retaliation, wage payment, civil rights, defamation and wrongful termination. Additionally, he focuses on litigation involving trade secret law/covenants not to compete, shareholder disputes, executive agreements, and intellectual property ownership issues. Greg currently serves as the firm's vice president and chair of the associate committee. He formerly served on the firm's board of directors and chaired the recruiting committee when its summer program was ranked second nationally among large firms. He has written on employee/employer related privacy issues and trade secret protection and has spoken on these topics at various forums. Greg focuses his counseling efforts on avoiding litigation and trains clients in the art of managing the problem employee, and managing to eliminate or reduce the risk of being sued. Many of these risk reduction concepts are reflected in the employment agreements, policies, handbooks and separation agreements Greg drafts for clients. Greg began his legal experience as a summer intern with Buchanan's Pittsburgh office and has spent his entire legal career with the firm. Prior to entering law school, he worked as an engineer in the space industry in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
