IEL Elite

Overview

Neil Abramson in New York and Anthony J Oncidi in Los Angeles co-lead Proskauer Rose’s employment offering, which is spread between offices in China, France, Hong Kong, the UK, and across the US. Clients include Fortune 500 names and non-profits.

In particular, foreign firms regularly rely on US partners to assist with important issues impacting their clients.

If we’re talking go-to firms in the US, then it's Proskauer Rose. I really appreciate working with them – the team is very impressive.

Nicola J Bartholomew and Kelly M McMullon are key names in the London office, and Yasmine Tarasewicz – who was recognised in IEL’s 2022 Women Leaders survey – is a key contact for Paris.

Specialisms

The highly specialised team is divided between various competences to offer expertise across all areas of employment law – from hiring and onboarding through to ERISA, employee benefits, workplace investigations, class actions, and non-compete agreements.

Contentious work for the group in both individual and class disputes regularly covers pay equity, discrimination or wage claims, and whistleblowing allegations.

Another standout area of work is on strategic corporate transactions, including M&A and restructuring operations. The team is able to assist with labour relations, executive compensation, and immigration matters.

Experts based in…
