David Moon is a Senior Associate with the Smithey Law Group where he represents employees and management in employment and labor disputes. He is experienced representing clients through all aspects of litigation, as well as helping mitigate risk through HR compliance and transactional matters.
David focuses his practice on employment-related matters, including workplace discrimination and harassment, wage disputes, restrictive covenant litigation, internal investigations, and separation issues.
