A strategic and compassionate advocate for complex employment matters

When our private school faced a wrongful termination lawsuit from a former administrator, the situation felt overwhelming. We needed counsel who understood both the nuances of employment law and the unique environment of educational institutions. Kristin Sostowski was that counsel. Her background from Harvard Law and her recognized expertise in labor and employment litigation were immediately evident. She didn't just react to the claim; she conducted a thorough investigation of our policies and procedures, built a formidable defense strategy, and communicated with us in clear, actionable terms. Her nine years of experience allowed her to anticipate every move from the opposing counsel. The case was dismissed in our favor without proceeding to trial, saving our institution significant time and resources. Kristin is more than a brilliant legal mind; she is a trusted advisor who protects her clients with unwavering professionalism and strategic foresight.
