ZASHIN & RICH SCORES ANOTHER SHAREHOLDER FROM A NATIONAL LABOR & EMPLOYMENT BOUTIQUE — Natalie M. Stevens joins Zashin & Rich’s Employment & Labor Group

After snagging shareholder Sarah J. Moore from Fisher & Phillips a few months ago, Zashin & Rich has now hired shareholder Natalie M. Stevens from Ogletree Deakins. With the hiring of Stevens, Zashin & Rich continues its quest to build the most powerful, diverse and inclusive labor and employment boutique emanating from its Cleveland, Ohio headquarters.

Natalie Stevens has practiced employment law for almost two decades. She concentrates her practice on counseling employers on compliance with workplace laws and regulations. Natalie regularly litigates employment-related matters, including discrimination, accommodation and leave issues and non-compete violations. Natalie also defends unionized employers in grievance and arbitration matters. Co-Managing Partner, Stephen Zashin, stated: “This was a no-brainer. Natalie has an incredible reputation and represents some of the biggest and best employers. We knew that she would fit our diverse and energetic culture and provide an immediate impact on the depth and breadth of our national labor and employment practice.” According to Natalie, she joined Zashin & Rich because of “its strong labor and employment practice and incredible reputation in the business and legal community” and she “looks forward to continuing to provide excellent service to existing and new clients with the Zashin & Rich team!”

Zashin & Rich represents large publicly traded and privately held businesses, non-profit organizations, and public-sector entities. Zashin & Rich is one of the largest, if not the largest, labor and employment boutiques in Ohio and has offices in Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio.
