ATLANTA, GA (June 29, 2015) – Fisher Phillips Managing Partner Roger Quillen and Partner Charles Caulkins have been named to "The Top 100 Most Powerful Employment Attorneys" in the United States by Human Resource Executive magazine. Human Resource Executive magazine compiled the list of influential employment attorneys on the basis of curriculum-vitae analyses, evaluations by clients and peers, and reporting by the staff of Lawdragon, a Los Angeles-based news and networking site for lawyers and clients.
