  • Non-compete, non-disclosure, and non-solicitation enforcement
  • Employment defense litigation (wrongful termination, wage disputes, etc.)
  • Business torts and unfair competition
  • Manage caseload from intake through trial, including pleadings, discovery, motion practice, hearings, and depositions.
  • Work closely with clients to develop litigation strategy and ensure exceptional representation.
Qualifications:
