Ben Tulis is a Partner in BOL’s Employment Group, who provides advice and counsel to employers and employees on labor and employment issues. 

Ben counsels clients on a wide variety of employment issues, including wage and hour laws, leaves of absence, employment-related agreements, incentive plans, independent contractor classifications, exempt/non-exempt classifications, company policies, reductions in force, employee discipline, litigation avoidance, and workplace trainings and seminars. Ben assists clients with employment-related agreements, including employment agreements, confidentiality agreements, commission agreements, incentive plans, contractor agreements, separation agreements, and arbitration agreements. 

Ben also conducts workplace investigations for employers and conducts audits in various areas, including wage and hour, leaves of absence, due diligence audits, and other compliance areas.

Before transitioning to his advice and counsel practice, Ben litigated and arbitrated several matters through verdict. He uses this experience and big picture perspective to help clients avoid litigation. Prior to joining BOL Law, Ben was a Principal at a nationwide labor and employment firm, where he worked for more than a decade. Before that, Ben practiced in New York representing accounting firms and related financial professionals in connection with all aspects of their businesses. 

Ben spends his free time enjoying every second with his wife Claire, children Max and Ollie, and his Cockapoo “Shea.” Ben also coaches his sons’ baseball teams and is their biggest fan (and they are his biggest fans when he plays Softball). Ben is from New York and remains an avid Mets, Knicks, and Jets fan. The adversity of being a lifelong fan of these teams has certainly helped Ben counsel clients through even the toughest of times.
