I engaged Valerie Hughes at Perkins Coie to advise my private school on a complex faculty contract dispute that had potential employment law implications. Her deep knowledge of education and employment law for management was immediately apparent, and her 18 years of experience in labor law provided a solid foundation for our case. It’s clear why she has received those Lawyer of the Year recognitions. The legal strategy she developed was sound and ultimately helped us reach a satisfactory resolution. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. Response times to emails were often slower than expected, sometimes taking several business days, which created anxiety during time-sensitive phases. While her advice was always precise, explanations could occasionally feel rushed, leaving our board with follow-up questions. For straightforward, high-stakes legal matters, her expertise is undeniable, but be prepared to manage expectations around client communication and accessibility.
