• Crop insurance / Crop stock loss
   
• Employment issues, including seasonal labor and immigration matters. Disputes related to your seasonal or migrant workforce can result in a failure to meet harvest deadlines and a loss of contracts with processors. We have substantial experience in this distinct area of employment law and can ensure that all local, state, and federal immigration and seasonal worker statutes are observed.

Larger firms that practice agriculture law only as a sideline may relegate your important business concerns to a paralegal or an attorney not experienced in this area. At Joseph D. Carney & Associates, LLC., you can be assured that your needs will receive the individual attention of an agriculture attorney with substantial experience on the broad range of issues encountered in agribusiness.

Farmers, processors, and manufacturers of agricultural commodities nationwide are invited to contact us today for a complimentary consultation and review of their ongoing needs from an experienced agriculture attorney.
