Daniel Taylor
When our company faced a high-stakes non-compete and trade secret litigation from a departing executive, Jean Schmidt was our anchor. Her deep knowledge of New York labor law and management-side employment litigation was immediately evident. She expertly navigated the discovery process and formulated a defense strategy that was both aggressive and pragmatic. Jean’s recognition by Best Lawyers is well-deserved; her counsel was sharp, strategic, and always focused on our business objectives. The matter was resolved favorably without the need for a protracted trial. I recommend her without reservation to any management team needing a formidable employment litigator.
