Hayes Dolce

Buffalo, NY

This is the 2025 fellowship description for this mentor organization. This position has been filled.

Hayes Dolce LLP is a union-side labor law firm in Buffalo, NY, serving clients throughout upstate New York and the Northeast United States. The firm was founded on the principle that justice in the workplace is critical to justice in society. Our attorneys are dedicated to fierce advocacy for working people in all aspects of labor and employment, with years of experience in: representing unions before all federal and state agencies and in court; employee benefit fund matters; discipline and grievance arbitration; wage and hour suits; sexual harassment matters; employment discrimination suits; and breach of contract actions. We represent a number of large and small union clients in the area, and currently have a healthy practice of wage and hour cases.

The Peggy Browning Fellow in 2025 should expect to hit the ground running and play a central role in all matters the firm handles during the fellowship. The Fellow will likely also be given the opportunity to participate in a comprehensive cross-section of labor law work, including support in arbitrations, NLRB matters, along with the possibility of supporting wage and hour litigation.

The total ten-week stipend for this fellowship will be $7,000.

Applicants should include a cover letter, resume, and writing sample. Applicants who have completed a Labor Law class are preferred, but both 1L and 2L students are encouraged to apply.
