Jackson Lewis P.C., one of the nation's most prominent workplace law firms, has announced the promotion of Alison L. Lynch and Dana G. Weisbrod to co-leaders of its Employment Litigation group. Lynch and Weisbrod will join existing co-leaders Carolyn G. Burnette and Ana C. Shields, further strengthening the leadership team overseeing one of the firm's most active and strategically important practice areas.
The expansion of the group's leadership reflects the growing complexity of workplace disputes facing employers across the United States. From single-plaintiff discrimination and retaliation claims to sweeping class actions and mass arbitration campaigns, employers today confront a litigation landscape that demands both regional insight and coordinated national strategy. By broadening its co-leadership structure, Jackson Lewis positions itself to deliver deeper bench strength and more responsive counsel to clients navigating these high-stakes matters.
Alison L. Lynch brings significant regional leadership experience to her new role. As the Orange County Office Managing Principal, she has overseen day-to-day operations and strategic direction at one of the firm's key West Coast locations. Her elevation to the national Employment Litigation group leadership is expected to enhance coordination between local practice teams and the broader national platform, benefiting clients with multi-jurisdictional exposure.
Dana G. Weisbrod, a Principal and NYC Litigation Manager, contributes more than 20 years of experience handling high-stakes litigation and mass arbitration defense. Her background is particularly relevant given the rising volume of mass arbitration filings, an area that has emerged as a defining challenge for employers with broad workforce arbitration programs. Weisbrod's practical experience defending complex, high-volume matters will support the group's continued focus on innovative and efficient defense strategies.
Together with Burnette and Shields, the newly expanded co-leadership team is designed to provide clients with a more integrated approach to employment litigation. The move underscores Jackson Lewis's ongoing commitment to developing internal talent and aligning firm leadership with the evolving demands of workplace law.
