Fisher Phillips Welcomes Rassa Ahmadi as Partner in Denver

Fisher Phillips, an international labor and employment law firm representing employers, is pleased to announce that Rassa Ahmadi has joined as a Partner in the firm’s Denver office.

Rassa is licensed to practice in both Colorado and California and most recently served as Assistant General Counsel for a global, Fortune 500 foodservice company. In that capacity she managed a portfolio of employment litigation matters, including a large number of class and PAGA-related California actions. She also provided daily legal guidance to management and ensured the company’s compliance with wage and hour requirements, leave laws, terminations, and overall policy enforcement. In addition, Rassa played an integral role in workplace investigations, internal wage and hour audits, employee classification issues, and the review of collective bargaining agreements. Prior to her in-house role, she was at one of the nation’s “big four” labor and employment law firms where she managed class action litigation in California from inception through discovery to settlement and throughout all stages of trial.

“We are thrilled to welcome a first-chair litigator like Rassa to our growing Colorado bench,” said Mike Greco, Regional Managing Partner of the firm’s Denver office. “Her experience handling large, high-stakes matters both here and in California increases the breadth and depth of what we can offer our national client base, and that’s a huge value add for the office.”

Rassa earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Wisconsin Law School and her Masters of Public Administration from New York University. She also earned her Bachelor of Arts from the University of California, Irvine after which she held various public service roles and was a paralegal at a prominent AmLaw 100 firm before attending law school.
