Sidley Austin bolstered its labor and employment practice in Los Angeles with the addition of three new partners. Joining the firm are Douglas R. Hart, Jennifer B. Zargarof and Geoffrey D. DeBoskey. The trio will focus on employment litigation, counseling and traditional labor work with an emphasis on wage and hour and employment discrimination class action litigation.

Anne E. Rea, a member of Sidley’s management committee responsible for West Coast offices, commented on the move in a press release.

“This enhancement of Sidley’s practice in Los Angeles is a strategic response to the substantial expansion and development of complex employment class action litigation, both in California and around the country,” Rea said.

Hart has practiced for more than 25 years and is considered one of the leading wage and hour class action litigators in the country.

Zargarof advocates for employers in a broad range of disputes, with a focus on class actions and other multi-plaintiff litigation. She defends companies in wage and hour, discrimination, wrongful termination and other employment-related matters at the trial and appellate levels.

DeBoskey handles all facets of labor and employment law, with a focus on defending complex wage and hour class action cases.

Sidley Austin is one of the world’s largest full-service law firms. Its Los Angeles office opened in 1980 and has approximately 140 lawyers.
