CLEVELAND, OH – March 13, 2006 – Baker Hostetler was listed in the March 2006 edition of Workforce Management magazine as a “Top Employment Law Firm.” The firm is number nine on the list which ranks firms based on the number of attorneys dedicated to employment/labor law, number of corporate clients and areas of specialization.
The 120 lawyers who practice employment/labor law serve 1,000 corporate clients, including Ford, IBM, J.P. Morgan Chase, The Progressive Corporation and Sprint Nextel, providing counsel in a number of different areas, including wage and hour collective actions, employment class actions, complex employment litigation, labor relations, employee benefits and workforce compliance.
According to Ron Linville, Firmwide Chair of the National Employment and Labor Group, "This ranking illustrates the hallmark of our practice: We are comparable in size and depth to top employment law boutiques, but we offer the broader resources of a leading, full-service firm.
