-- NEW YORK — Phillips & Associates, a leading employment law firm, is reaffirming its commitment to supporting employees facing challenging workplace situations in the wake of recent leadership changes at major corporations, including Nestlé. The firm emphasizes the importance of transparency, strong workplace policies, and advocacy for employees during times of corporate transition.
“We make sure the voices of the vulnerable are heard, even when the odds are stacked against them,” said William K. Phillips, whose firm is one of the largest plaintiff-side employment law practices in the region.
Since its founding, Phillips & Associates has represented over 8,000 clients, handled nearly 2,000 cases in federal and state courts, and recovered more than $300 million. In the first eight months of 2025, the firm secured $33 million in settlements and verdicts.
Phillips prioritizes client privacy, noting that publicity may benefit attorneys but often harms victims. The firm prepares each case thoroughly, which enables it to secure confidential, high-value settlements that protect clients’ futures.
In addition to litigation, Phillips founded HarassmentHelp.org, a confidential resource for employees, and will host a national sexual harassment conference in Miami in February 2026. Phillips & Associates has more Super Lawyers in employment law in New York and New Jersey than any other firm.
Phillips says the most significant barrier for victims is fear of retaliation or disbelief. “We prepare for court every time. That preparation gives us power at the negotiating table, which often means justice without public exposure,” he said.
Phillips advocates for stronger workplace laws, such as mandatory reporting and shifting the burden of proof in harassment cases. He also plans to expand the firm nationwide to ensure employees are not left unsupported in complex workplace situations.
