OPINION OF THE COURT
RENDELL, Circuit Judge.
Gisela Carino brought suit against attorney Marc Stefan and Stefan’s employer, Bustavage & Associates, for legal malpractice in representing her in connection with a labor grievance proceeding against her employer. The District Court granted a motion to dismiss on the basis that the attorneys were immune from liability under 29 U.S.C. § 185(b), Section 301(b) of the Labor Management Relations Act (“LMRA”). We agree with the District Court and with those courts of appeals who have spoken on this issue, and will affirm.
