I engaged Shannon Bettis Nakabayashi of Jackson Lewis PC during a particularly challenging period for my mid-sized tech company. We were facing a complex wrongful termination claim that threatened significant financial and reputational damage. From our initial consultation, Shannon’s deep expertise in employment law management was evident. She meticulously analyzed our internal policies and the specific circumstances, providing clear, strategic counsel that was both legally sound and pragmatically aligned with our business goals. Her recognition by Best Lawyers was immediately understandable in her approach. Shannon guided us through every step—from the initial investigation and documentation review to the negotiation process—with a calm, authoritative demeanor that instilled immense confidence. Her deep understanding of California employment law, honed since her graduation from San Francisco Law School in 2001, was invaluable. The outcome was a favorable resolution that protected our company far better than we had anticipated, avoiding costly litigation. Shannon is more than just a brilliant attorney; she is a strategic partner who listens, explains complex issues with clarity, and fiercely protects her clients' interests. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
