Kelsey Schiappacasse at Fisher Phillips provided outstanding representation when my company faced a wrongful termination lawsuit in Philadelphia. Her deep knowledge of employment law, particularly in discrimination and retaliation defense, was immediately evident. She guided us through the arbitration process with a clear, strategic approach that mitigated significant risk. It's no surprise she's recognized in labor and employment litigation. While her billing rates reflect her expertise, communication turnaround could occasionally be a day or two slower during peak periods. Overall, her nine years of focused experience and practical advice from American University Washington College of Law made a critical difference. I confidently recommend her for employer-side employment matters.
