also known as Katie Lipp
I am an employment and labor law attorney, representing companies, employees and executives in litigation and personnel matters. I have a general background in education, technology, construction, and government contracts matters.
A large part of my litigation practice pertains to post-employment litigation, both raising and defending claims involving fraud, non-compete and non-solicitation agreements, misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, leaked confidential information, defamation, and civil conspiracy. I also regularly negotiate agreements outside of the courtroom, including agreements pertaining to terminations, severance pay and commercial leases.
I regularly advise and train companies on best practices in the workplace, on topics such as workplace investigations, sexual harassment, the joint employer doctrine, terminations, ADA accommodations, and job applications.
I also have experience advising and litigating labor union matters, including employee termination grievances in arbitration, and negotiating collective bargaining agreements.

Highly Recommend!
I worked with Ms. Lipp on a tricky employment case with a big organization. She was easy to reach, calm and positive. She kept me focused on the big picture and was extremely knowledgeable about all my legal options. Without her support in this issue, I would've felt panicked and lost. With her g...

Highly Competent and Professional
Ms. Lipp represented me in a non compete, non solicitation case filed against me from a former employer. She had a lot of hurdles to overcome and she handled every single one. The judge ultimately dismissed the case against me entirely. Without that I would have be prevented from working in the occup...
Kris, thank you for your kind review. My favorite part of defense litigation is when the case is dismissed in full. Thank you for allowing me to serve as your defense counsel.
