Mark Joseph Passero

Mark Passero is an experienced trial attorney and counselor – practicing exclusively in employment law for nearly his entire career. Mark’s practice focuses on all aspects of employment law, including individual claims and class actions in federal and state courts and before administrative agencies. Mark litigates matters and provides counsel relating to all types of employment claims: wage and hour disputes, whistleblower retaliation (including under the False Claims Act, Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX)), employment discrimination (ADEA, Title VII, ADA, and state law claims), wrongful discharge, breach of contract, misappropriation of trade secrets, breach of restrictive covenants, and tortious interference. Mark also has significant experience conducting workplace investigations and arbitrating and mediating matters to successful resolutions.

After graduating Magna Cum Laude from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, Mark spent nearly a decade at national and global law firms (Fox Rothschild and Reed Smith) focusing his practice on employment law, litigation, and counseling. Mark then leveraged that experience and founded his own employment law firm, Passero Employment Law – using his experience to guide workers and small businesses though negotiations, litigation, and workplace disputes. Mark is honored to join the experienced team at LawrenceQueen and continue his career helping employees and small businesses.

In his practice, Mark values communication and understanding above all. While he is a passionate advocate, he understands that each client and case is different. He will provide honest and direct advice that not only analyzes the law but considers the realities of each case.

When not working, Mark spends as much time as he can traveling and visiting friends and family with his wife Ashley, three boys, and two dogs.
