Shechtman, managing partner and chair of the Labor and Employment Group; Colleen Caden, chair of the firm’s Immigration Law Group; and Joshua Zuckerberg, a member of the firm’s Labor and Employment Group, are recognized among 200 employment lawyers nationwide for their excellence in guiding employers through today's challenging workplace-related laws and regulations.

Shechtman is included in the top 20 list of most powerful employment attorneys for labor law. Caden and Zuckerberg are included among 40 up-and-comers in employment law.

The "Nation's Most Powerful Employment Attorneys" rankings are the result of an exhaustive selection process handled jointly by Human Resource Executive, which reaches more than 75,000 human resource executives each month, and Lawdragon, the Los Angeles-based legal networking site.

She has experience in all aspects of immigration and nationality law and ensuring compliance with immigration laws, U.S. Department of Labor regulations and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services programs.

Zuckerberg’s practice covers the entire spectrum of labor and employment issues.
