HR

Outsourcing our comprehensive HR functions to Foley & Foley has been an outstanding business decision, helping to streamline our processes and gain measurable efficiencies in our work. The support is always timely, accurate, and detailed. Our senior management team is universally thrilled with this arrangement. We are very grateful for this partnership and deeply appreciate the focused expertise and continued counsel for Foley & Foley.

Foley & Foley’s work began with a comprehensive and thoughtful assessment of our Human Resources function, balancing compliance requirements with the operational realities of nonprofit healthcare. They brought immediate clarity to risk areas while simultaneously helping us reimagine HR as a strategic driver of culture, accountability, and organizational effectiveness.

What distinguishes Foley & Foley is the depth of their subject matter expertise across employment law, labor relations, and human resources operations, combined with their ability to translate that expertise into practical, real‑time solutions. Their guidance consistently places people, processes, and technology at the center of decision‑making, ensuring that HR infrastructure supports both mission delivery and workforce sustainability.

Their executive leadership support and senior leader coaching have been transformational. Foley & Foley partners effectively with executive teams, providing sound judgment, clear counsel, and steady leadership during complex employee relations matters and organizational change. Their approach strengthens leadership confidence while reinforcing personal accountability and consistent application of policy.

Equally important, Foley & Foley has helped us build modern HR infrastructure aligned with the evolving needs of a multi‑generational workforce. They understand the realities of today’s talent environment and have supported us in aligning HR operations with best practices in engagement, performance management, and organizational culture…Foley & Foley offers a rare combination of strategic vision, operational excellence, and trusted leadership.

Throughout my experience as a Human Resources Manager, I observed a thoughtful and strategic approach to the HR function that consistently prioritized both organizational effectiveness and the employee experience. Rather than viewing HR simply as a compliance function, Foley and Foley approached it as a key driver of workplace culture, employee engagement, and sustainable organizational growth.

Their subject matter expertise in human resources was exceptional. From navigating complex employee relations matters to guiding my organization through progressive discipline processes, Foley and Foley demonstrated a strong command of employment law while also applying a practical, people-centered perspective. What stands out most with me is their emotional intelligence—the ability to manage sensitive workplace situations with fairness, empathy, and sound judgment. This balanced approach helped our organization address difficult issues while maintaining respect and dignity for employees.

Any organization seeking guidance will benefit greatly from Foley and Foley’s rare combination of legal expertise, HR knowledge, emotional intelligence, and strategic vision.

We are a complex, multi-site, nonprofit organization and struggled for years looking for the best HR model for our organization. I can’t begin to express how our partnership with Foley & Foley for HR leadership and strategic guidance created such a number of benefits for us.

Our leadership team experienced great guidance and development from their very talented team of HR professionals and employment law experts. In addition to day-to-day operational support for HR functions, Mike and his team encouraged us to think more strategically about how we could impact the workplace and our culture.

To that end, a customized leadership development series was provided to our team that ranged in topics from talent acquisition to compliance with employment law requirements. It was extremely beneficial to our team. Their assistance in designing a new performance appraisal model also helped us in our efforts to create a culture of reward and recognition for our staff to grow and thrive. These initiatives are but two examples of what we experienced that made such a positive impact in our organization along with the excellent HR support and guidance from their team.

We wanted to find an external HR consulting group that would provide the depth and breadth of services even the most qualified solo HR person could not. Additionally, this company needed to be able to work with a small nonprofit with a 40-year history of a clear mission, vision, and values because context is everything.

I was very anxious when we knew we would have a vacancy for the HR Manager because I didn’t want there to be a gap in service to staff. I wanted a seamless transition, knowing it was a lot to ask. Well, I got my wish when I confirmed the contract with Foley and Foley! What I got in addition to all of that was almost immediate trust because of our prior knowledge and work with the firm.

I thought you should know how much we already value our partnership with Foley and Foley.
