Julian Burns King exclusively represents workers who have been wronged by their employers. She has both academic and personal experience with the obstacles that stand in the way of workplace equality for women and underrepresented minorities and devotes her practice to tearing down these barriers. She represents plaintiffs in discrimination, harassment, and retaliation cases, with particular expertise in gender discrimination cases, cases involving the glass ceiling, and discrimination against pregnant workers and working parents.
Ms. King has won numerous seven-figure settlements in the past three years alone, in addition to dozens of settlements in the mid- to high-six figures.
Before co-founding King & Siegel, she practiced at two of the country's top litigation firms representing companies in high-stakes regulatory disputes. She is very familiar with the resources and tactics of the country's largest employers and chose to dedicate her practice to providing the same personalized, aggressive representation to those who need it most.
She is the mother of an adorable toddler and a grumpy rescue dog.

I was so fortunate to have Julian and Elliot as my attorneys for a legal matter with my former employer. They are truly a top notch law firm that will truly work hard to get the justice you deserve. But what I think that sets them from the rest is that they are passionate at what they do, not only do...
