In January 2006, after 17 years as an employment law litigator and advisor, I opened my own practice performing workplace investigations. I am a sole practitioner with over 45 years of experience in human resources and employment law.
I conduct independent investigations into workplace and employment issues at the request of employers or their counsel. My recent assignments include performing factual investigations into sexual harassment complaints; gender, age, and race discrimination; violations of corporate ethical standards and policies; and retaliation. From 2006 through March 2019, I assisted a defense contractor by managing its responses to calls to the corporate ethics hotline. This included not only conducting investigations, but guiding local human resources staff and evaluating investigations conducted by others.
Before attending law school, I spent 10 years as a human resources and labor relations professional.
Although I no longer litigate, my litigation experience included the successful defense of employment discrimination, wrongful termination, wage and hour, Family and Medical Leave Act claims, and other disputes arising out of the employment relationship.
