Greenberg Traurig

Sought after for its ‘depth and breadth of resources,’ Greenberg Traurig’s labor and employment disputes group is a key point of contact for domestic and multinational blue-chip businesses from the media and entertainment, education, and financial services sectors. The practice routinely acts before state and federal courts in cases involving whistleblower claims, allegations of harassment, and privacy violations, as well as wage and hour class, collective, and PAGA actions, WARN Act claims, and employment classification disputes. Heading up the team in Denver is Naomi Beer, who specializes in multijurisdictional class actions concerning wage and hour issues, breach of contract, and FLSA violations, with a focus on the retail, manufacturing, and restaurant industries. In Boston, John Richards is the name to note, while Ronald Holland spearheads the San Francisco office. Holland comes recommended for his breadth of expertise, which encompasses wrongful terminations, harassment and discrimination accusations, and unfair labor practices, alongside wage and hour class actions, whistleblower cases, and contractual breaches. The department also benefits from the aptitude of New York’s Todd Girshon and Los Angeles' Ashley Pickett.
