We're pleased to announce the hiring of Eamon McCleery, an experienced labor attorney who joined our union staff effective July 1.

Eamon will be our Teamsters 117 staff attorney dedicated to handling negotiations, arbitrations, and unfair labor practice litigation on behalf of members working in corrections and law enforcement.

Nacido en el noroeste del Pacífico y graduado de la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de Oregón, Eamon trabajó anteriormente como abogado en un bufete de abogados especializados en la representación de los empleados de las fuerzas del orden y del sistema penitenciario del Estado de Washington.

Es importante entender que la destacada unidad y la baja tasa de abandono entre los miembros de las fuerzas del orden y del sistema penitenciario nos han permitido asegurar a Eamon como un recurso adicional.

When members stand together and commit to each other like we have seen at Teamsters 117, we can improve wages, safety, and benefits and protect our workplace rights through professional, quality representation.

If you are in need of legal support due to an issue in the workplace, please contact your union representative who will initiate a legal review process with Eamon.
