Columbus, Ohio

As a member of the labor and employment practice, I advise and defend clients nationwide on the full array of employment matters -- from recruiting and selection, to workplace policies and procedures, to termination and post-employment restrictions, to informing clients of employment law developments through training and publications. I have extensive experience with wage-hour class and collective actions, marijuana in the workplace, affirmative action, and equal employment opportunity. I am also a member of the government relations practice, where I strategize, draft, and analyze federal, state, and local legislation and advise clients on legislative advocacy.

Columbus, Ohio

As a staff attorney for the nonpartisan legislative drafting and research agency of the Ohio General Assembly, I researched, drafted, and analyzed legislation with a primary emphasis in labor, employment, workers' compensation, and occupational licensing. I also advised the Ohio House of Representatives Commerce and Labor Committee on legislative matters.
