It is always an honor to be invited to speak to law students about the real life practice of law. The reality of civil rights, employment, and whistleblower work for individuals and executives is: you have to be clever. The deck is often stacked against people in favor of corporations. It takes a mix of luck, grit, and gumption to win. The best advice I could give to prospective plaintiffs is this: start early. Call a lawyer as soon as you think your rights may be violated. Lawyers can often help set the table and help plaintiffs avoid mistakes that hurt their case. The later the call comes, the harder that gets.

Never give up; be resilient; disciplined and persevere and strive to do work that is meaningful and fulfilling. This was my advice to law students this week at the Melbourne University Law Students' Society commercial law panel. It was great to return to the law school after so many years to give my insights about what it's like to be an employment law partner at Dentons including high profile clients; wins in the High Court and working with the media! #careers #Dentons #law #employmentlawyer

Here is a short video of me describing why I chose employment law as the area of law I wanted to practice beginning from law school at Florida International University - College of Law. Thanks, Justin McNaughton for opening up this discussion. For any law students or junior attorneys unsure about what they want to do, give it some time. Keep trying new things and eventually hopefully you will find an area of law which you enjoy. #employmentlaw #workplacelaw #workplaceconsulting #lawyer #attorney #lawstudent #TheWorkplaceLawfirm

I had a great time in Des Moines last weekend presenting on algorithmic bias at the Eighth Circuit NELA Conference. More and more employers are using algorithms to make hiring and other employment decisions. It's absolutely vital we put some legal and ethical guardrails around that.
