Joshua Nadreau Discusses How Football Officiating Enhances His Legal Practice

In a bylined article published by Law360, Fisher Phillips partner Joshua Nadreau explored how officiating high school football has strengthened the skills he relies on in his labor and employment practice. Josh, a certified Massachusetts official since 2018 who has worked championship games at Gillette Stadium and Fenway Park, explained how officiating reinforces critical lawyering skills including preparation, decisiveness under pressure, and composure in emotionally charged situations. "There is no pause button on the field, and no instant replay in high school football," Nadreau wrote. "You see the play once, process it quickly, make the call, communicate it and move on. In many workplace situations, lawyers face a similar dynamic."
