Wendel, Rosen, Black & Dean LLP, one of the largest and longest operating law firms in the East Bay, welcomes Margaret J. Grover as a partner to its Employment Group. She joins the firm from Kronick, Moskovitz, Tiedemann & Girard where she was also a partner.

“Maggie’s deep employment law experience, particularly in the East Bay, is exactly what we have been looking to add to the firm,” said Richard Waxman, firmwide managing partner. “Labor and employment law in California is rapidly evolving and can be quite challenging for employers. Our clients will benefit from the expanded services Maggie can help us provide to many of the businesses and individuals we already work with in other capacities.”

Grover’s dedicated practice has focused on employment matters for nearly 30 years, representing both employers and employees. She advises clients on a wide range of issues including harassment, discrimination, Affordable Care Act, Family and Medical Leave and Family Rights Acts, Americans with Disabilities Act, wage and hour matters, Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act, workplace security, severance, and workplace privacy. She also represents clients in all phases of employment litigation, including ERISA actions. In addition, Grover is an experienced mediator, working to resolve a broad range of disputes including employment and business matters.

“I’m so excited to be part of Wendel Rosen,” said Grover. “The firm has a reputation in the legal and business communities of being professional, creative and dedicated to serving both clients and the broader community. I know my existing clients will greatly benefit from the firm’s breadth of full service offerings.”

Active within her industry and community, Grover is a member of the American Bar Association and the Bar Association of San Francisco. She serves on the Board of Directors of the Conference of California Bar Associations and is the church attorney for the Episcopal Diocese of California. Grover is a frequent speaker and writer on various employment law topics. She earned her J.D. from Case Western Reserve University (1983) and her B.S. from the University of Maryland (1980).
