Treger Consulting

Protect and Thrive

Trusted counsel for complex employment law issues.

You know there are rules. More than you can keep track of. You try your best to follow them all, and you're not aware of anything specific you're doing wrong. But somewhere in the back of your mind, you know there are things you're missing.

You've thought about it. Maybe after a termination that felt a bit too messy. Or when an employee asked HR a question they couldn't answer. Maybe it's just a quiet awareness that your company has grown faster than your employment practices have. You're not ignoring it. You just don't know where to start, and you don't know what you don't know. There's a gap between what you're doing and what you're supposed to be doing; you just can't see the edges of it.

That gap has a price tag. Usually a big one. Just ask the company that lost $6 million over a single unchecked payroll box.

That's where Treger Consulting comes in. With more than a decade of experience, we help employers find the practices that create liability and fix them before someone else finds them first. The payroll configurations, the policy language, the management habits that quietly generate exposure: I know what to look for because I know what plaintiff's attorneys look for.

I work with a select group of clients, and I work with them closely.

The objective is straightforward: make your organization defensible. Not in theory. In practice, so that when someone does look closely at your employment records, what they find is a company that did the work.

When disputes escalate, and in this environment some will, I provide litigation and administrative defense in state, federal, and select international forums. I fight hard for every client. But the cleanest outcomes come from the cases where we've already done the groundwork: tightened the practices, built the documentation, closed the gaps. The best time to call is before you think you need to.

What We Do

Business Audit

Compliance

Find What’s Hiding in Your Employment Practices

Most companies have compliance gaps they don’t know about: payroll configurations, policy language, management habits, quietly generating liability. Our audit identifies those gaps across every aspect of your employment practices and gives you a clear roadmap to close them.

Ongoing Consulting

Advisory

Expert Guidance Before You Make the Decision

The most expensive employment law mistakes happen in real time: a termination handled wrong, a policy applied inconsistently, a conversation that creates liability. This service gives you direct access to experienced counsel so you can get the answer before you make the call, not after.

Litigation Services

Defense

When a Claim Arrives, You Want Us in the Room

Lawsuits are disruptive, expensive, and rarely straightforward. We provide litigation and administrative defense in state, federal, and select international forums, with a focus on resolving disputes efficiently and on terms that protect the organization. Clients who have worked with us on prevention give us a head start. But we bring the same intensity and skill to every matter, regardless of when we enter the picture.

Investigations

Title IX & Workplace

Investigations That Hold Up Under Scrutiny

When allegations of harassment, discrimination, or misconduct surface, the investigation process determines everything that follows. A flawed process doesn’t just create legal exposure; it makes the outcome indefensible. I conduct independent investigations for employers and educational institutions where the findings need to be credible, thorough, and built to withstand challenge.
