John Wharton

Exceptional guidance through a complex employment dispute

Our company faced a challenging wrongful termination lawsuit that threatened significant financial and reputational damage. We engaged John Wharton at Greenberg Traurig based on his recognition in Labor and Employment Law - Management. From our first meeting, John demonstrated a profound understanding of Colorado employment statutes and a strategic mindset honed over his 11-year career. He meticulously dissected the plaintiff's claims, guided us through every discovery phase with clarity, and prepared a defense that was both robust and pragmatic. His dual expertise, also noted in real estate litigation, brought a unique perspective to the table, especially regarding the commercial property aspects of our operations. John’s professionalism was unwavering; he was always accessible and translated complex legal concepts into actionable business advice. The matter was resolved favorably through a negotiated settlement that protected our interests entirely. I cannot recommend John Wharton highly enough for any business navigating employment or complex commercial litigation.
