Greenberg Traurig’s Lindsay E. Hutner Co-Edits California Employment Law Treatise 2022

SAN FRANCISCO – Oct. 24, 2022 – Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP Shareholder Lindsay E. Hutner, co-chair of the firm’s Employment Litigation & Trials Group, co-edited a publication for the Practising Law Institute (PLI) titled “California Employment Law.” In addition to editing the treatise, Hutner co-authored the “Gender Discrimination” chapter.

The treatise includes fourteen chapters examining the statutes and case law governing the employer-employee relationship in California, providing practical guidance on state, local, and federal rules and regulations, including the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, the California Labor Code and Wage Orders, along with detailed examination of class actions, whistleblower rights, and trade secrets, among other key employment law topics.

Hutner, a Labor & Employment Practice shareholder in the firm’s San Francisco office, is a focused, practical, and dedicated litigator, whose clients trust her to not only vehemently defend their interests, but offer pragmatic, no-nonsense advice, all with an eye toward their business needs. She counsels employers and works closely with clients in defending both class actions and single-plaintiff cases involving employment discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage and hour, Private Attorneys General Act, unfair competition, enforcement of non-competes and other restrictive covenants, misappropriation of trade secrets, wrongful termination, and breach of contract. Hutner has been invited to speak at numerous programs covering a wide variety of employment law issues and is the co-chair of PLI’s annual conference, Cutting-Edge Employment Law Issues.
