FACULTY

Angelo Spinola, Home Health, Home Care & Hospice Chair, Polsinelli 

With two decades of legal experience, Angelo Spinola’s practice focuses on employment litigation with a special interest in the home health, home care and hospice industry. Bringing a wide breadth of knowledge across the health care spectrum, he works with an array of home-based care clients, including Fortune 500 organizations and franchisors, small businesses, and franchisees across multiple industries. Additionally, Angelo works closely with private equity firms and investment groups with respect to labor and employment issues that may arise during acquisitions and activities in these sectors.
Angelo partners with attorneys in Polsinelli’s Health Care, Corporate and Transactional, and Franchise practices to build coalitions that bring a deep bench of experience and industry knowledge to his clients in the home health, home care and hospice industry.
Leveraging technology to better serve clients, Angelo utilizes innovative legal technology platforms designed specifically for franchise systems and home health, home care and hospice clients. The platforms serve as a source for industry information and substantive legal resources where employers have direct access to the tools, documents and knowledge needed to reduce their legal spend as their business needs grow throughout the corporate lifecycle and franchise process. Angelo also utilizes client portals to share confidential, proprietary client documents to allow clients and him to seamlessly manage matters or case-specific documents.
Angelo regularly represents employers across the United States in class actions brought under the Fair Labor Standards Act and state wage and hour laws. His experience includes:

  • Helping employers respond to wage and hour investigations by the U.S. Department of Labor and state agency equivalents.
  • Conducting pay practice and exemption audits.
  • Due diligence support on mergers and acquisitions and other transactions.
  • Coalition building and support for common issues across franchise systems and home care agencies.
  • Consultation on joint employment and successor liability avoidance across franchise systems, staffing companies, multi-company health care systems, executives and business owners.
  • Developing compliance measures that minimize wage and hour exposure.
  • Representing management in grievance arbitrations.
  • Drafting restrictive covenant agreements. 

Angelo has litigated various types of discrimination cases, including age, disability, race, national origin, sex, harassment and retaliation, on behalf of employers in federal and state courts and administrative tribunals throughout the United States.
Additionally, Angelo assists employers in promoting an issue-free work environment through counseling, training and other preventive strategies. He conducts training on employment-related matters for management personnel, lawyers and human resources professionals, and he is a regular speaker before business organizations and human resource groups on a wide variety of employment law topics.
Angelo has earned recognition from Chambers USA, a leading legal industry rankings organization, with clients noting that “Angelo is the go-to attorney in employment law for home care companies” and “Angelo has an exceptional knowledge base and unmatched ability to convey that knowledge to those with very little legal background.”
