Offering representation in both federal and state courts in trade secrets and restrictive covenants litigation and class actions arising from allegations of discrimination, Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP is a trusted advisor to notable names from the cosmetics and beauty, financial services, and media and entertainment sectors.

He is supported by Rebecca Sivitz, who is based between Boston and New York and concentrates on wage and hour, harassment, and retaliation disputes. The team also benefits from the expertise of New York’s Celine Chan, who has considerable experience acting before the EEOC. On the compliance and litigation avoidance fronts, Xander Tabloff and Peter Mee – both of whom are based in Boston – are the key points of contact.
