2026 Employment Law Update

Staying compliant with the law isn’t just good practice—it’s a business necessity. Employment law touches nearly every organization, and lapses in compliance can surface at the worst possible time: during a business transaction, when due diligence and representations and warranties put a company’s legal compliance under a microscope.  Join us as Attorney Deb Collins, Founder of Yeng Collins Law, PLLC, walks through the latest developments in Virginia employment law. Deb will break down how recent changes are likely to affect business owners, share practical best practices for staying compliant, and highlight the common pitfalls that lead to costly employment disputes.  Whether you’re preparing for a transaction, managing a growing workforce, or simply want to make sure your policies are current, this session will give you the insight you need to protect your business.
