The Daily Journal recently named partner Katherine V.A. Smith to its Top Labor & Employment Lawyers 2025 list. One of her significant recent client victories came when she achieved a rare win on summary judgment in state court over discrimination, retaliation, and harassment claims brought by a former employee against a healthcare biotech company.

Katherine told the Daily Journal that her interest in labor law is tied to the variety of cases she sees. “At the end of the day, it’s always about people – their motivations, beliefs, and feelings. It’s endlessly fascinating.”
