Partner Ann Marie Painter was quoted in the Law.com* article, "Labor of Law," regarding the impact that workplace discrimination and harassment issues can have on a company's health.

Ann Marie said more companies are turning to white-collar teams for their backgrounds in criminal prosecution and enforcement.

“There’s a realization on the part of the organization’s leadership today that creating and maintaining a workplace safe from gender discrimination and sexual harassment is a business issue,” Ann Marie said. “Companies are seeing that it’s an issue for investors. Issues that can impact the brand reputation and can impact stock price or value. It can have a whole lot of implications for the company’s health.”
