Julia Clark represents employers in workplace law disputes – including defending against claims of harassment, discrimination, and retaliation – and helps them comply with a wide range of federal and state employment laws and agency regulations. She also assists in developing employee handbooks, policies, and procedures.
With a decade of experience practicing employment law in the Philadelphia market, Julia has been on both sides of the table, having previously served as lead plaintiffs’ counsel in numerous employment discrimination and wage and hour matters in Pennsylvania and New Jersey federal and state courts, as well as before the EEOC and PHRC. She has tried numerous cases to verdict in both jury and non-jury trials and her comprehensive perspective lends valuable insight into case strategies and tactics, from discovery through trials and appeals.
Julia graduated cum laude from the Earle Mack School of Law at Drexel University, where she was a Dean’s Scholarship recipient and taught constitutional law classes in Philadelphia public high schools and, as a teaching fellow for the Marshall Brennan Constitutional Literacy Project, coached students to compete in city-wide and national moot court competitions.
After law school, Julia completed a year-long internship with the Delaware County District Attorney’s Office before starting her employment law practice.
