More About Autumn
When employers face legal disputes, Autumn tailors unique defense strategies to help them achieve their objectives in a cost-effective way. She has represented California employers in a range of arbitrations, single-plaintiff disputes, and class actions. Autumn has defended clients against claims involving wage and hour matters, FEHA/Title VII, misclassification, wrongful termination, constructive discharge, and retaliation.
Autumn uses innovative strategies to achieve favorable outcomes on behalf of her clients. For instance, she once resolved her client’s matter at mediation for a nominal sum when the plaintiff had insisted on a seven-figure settlement. In another case, Autumn earned a grant of summary judgment on discrimination claims for a nationwide manufacturer. Additionally, she once had a multi-plaintiff PAGA action dismissed at the pleading stage. She also single-handedly tried a wage and hour bench trial regarding allegations of misclassification as independent contractor, which resulted in a defense verdict.
California’s employment laws are robust and continually changing, so employers turn to Autumn to stay up to date with employment law news. She provides her clients with practical, real-world solutions to help them navigate the myriad of complex federal, state, and local laws.
As counsel, Autumn has conducted many workplace investigations, as well as anti-harassment trainings. She draws from her unique experience and perspective to assist clients with their employment law matters.
