Henry Robinson Biography :

Biography

Henry H. Robinson is a partner in Kelly Hart & Hallman LLP and is the head of its Labor and Employment practice group. He did his undergraduate work at the University of North Carolina and graduated with a juris doctor from Cornell Law School in 1974. In 1975, he obtained his masters in Industrial and Labor Relations from Cornell University.

Mr. Robinson counsels and represents clients in all areas of labor and employment law. Clients value his advice and abilities in and out of the courtroom. He is listed among the "Texas Super Lawyers" in Texas Monthly magazine and in The Best Lawyers in America.

Mr. Robinson has extensive experience in diverse industries such as transportation, retail, oil and gas, banking, finance, telecommunications, health care, technology, manufacturing and sales. His experience includes single-plaintiff and multi-plaintiff litigation as well as class actions and collective actions. He has handled litigation before federal and state forums in Texas and many other states and before a host of arbitration forums.

Mr. Robinson counsels clients on employment practices and policies designed to avoid potential problems and minimize risk. When an issue exists, he identifies options and their respective advantages and disadvantages. In litigation, he gives personal attention at all phases: discovery, motion practice, summary proceedings, settlement negotiations, and mediation, trial and appeal.

Mr. Robinson’s experience includes assisting clients on the following:

Discrimination, harassment and retaliation issues

Wrongful termination issues

Family leave issues

Wage and hour issues

Covenants not to compete and confidentiality and trade secret issues

Fiduciary duty issues

Employment agreement issues

Workplace violence issues

Whistleblower issues

Constitutional issues

Tortious interference, conspiracy, negligence, and defamation issues

Preventative union programs

Union organizing issues

Unfair labor practices

Union-management negotiations

Executive Order 11246, equal opportunity clauses, and compliance issues

Before entering private practice, Mr. Robinson worked as an in-house attorney for a labor union and has taught labor law, industrial relations, and organizational behavior. In addition to his current practice, he is a speaker on labor and employment law issues. Before entering the practice of law, Mr. Robinson served in the United States Army (Intelligence) in Vietnam and was awarded the Bronze Star and other medals.

Henry and his wife have two sons. In addition to his framed academic degrees and license to practice law, his office contains a gallery of photos of New York Yankees sluggers. Henry’s competitive instincts extend to the billiards table, where a "friendly"game of 8-ball is merely a euphemism.
