Travis Anderson and Tracey Kennedy Named Among Daily Journal’s Top Labor & Employment Lawyers in California
The Daily Journal selected partners Travis Anderson and Tracey Kennedy for its 2024 list of “Top Labor & Employment Lawyers” in California.
Anderson was noted for his successes defending employers in trade secrets litigation. He co-leads the firm’s Secrets team, and he recently obtained a jury verdict in favor of Costco Wholesale Corporation after a four-day trial in a federal court in the Southern District of California. The jury took just 90 minutes to return a verdict in favor of Costco on all counts.
This marks Kennedy’s 10th appearance on this prestigious list. The Daily Journal highlighted Kennedy’s 30-year track record of representing employers in a wide variety of employment litigation, including trying three multi-million dollar wage-and-hour cases to verdict. The Daily Journal also noted Kennedy’s leadership roles within the firm, including serving on the firm’s executive and compensation committees and that she has been part of several of the firm's diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, which have helped inform her practice.
"Every case is different, every client's different, every plaintiff's different," Kennedy said in the Daily Journal. “Without sensitivity to those differences, you're not able to counsel [clients] appropriately. You're not going to be able to ... spot the legal and cultural and statutory issues."
