His work for energy-sector clients has included matters involving drilling companies, contractors, and suppliers. Sbrolla also counsels employers on compliance and represents them before the Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division. He drafts employment policies and human resources materials as part of that advisory work.

Philip J. Sbrolla helps clients manage disputes that range from individual liability claims to complex commercial and employment litigation.
