WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (March 31, 2008) Jackson Lewis LLP, one of the country's largest workplace law firms, is pleased to announce that firm-wide Managing Partner Patrick L. Vaccaro has been named one of the Top 50 Most Powerful Employment Lawyers in the US by Human Resource Executive magazine and Lawdragon, a legal ranking and news service that provides expert analysis about lawyers and judges.
More than 20,000 lawyers nationwide are polled to identify the leading labor and employment lawyers for Human Resource Executive's Top 50.? Submissions are collected from peers, clients, judges and marketing professionals to ensure that the resulting list reflects the true leaders of the labor and employment field.
Mr. Vaccaro has represented employers in virtually every type of labor and employment law matter for more than 42 years. He has, over the years, played a key role in coordinating the firm's national labor practice. A vital part of his practice has involved counseling with respect to the development and implementation of strategic labor and employment initiatives. He has also counseled with respect to a number of highly publicized corporate campaigns. In addition to being included in Human Resource Executive's Top 50, he has been named a Best Lawyer in America for over 10 consecutive years, named by Westchester Magazine the best labor and employment lawyer in Westchester County, and selected as a New York Super Lawyer.
"It is a great honor to be included in Human Resource Executive's Top 50," said Vaccaro. "I have had the good fortune at Jackson Lewis of practicing with some of the very best labor and employment lawyers in the United States, any number of whom could have been selected for this award."
