Rowe S. Manasan

With more than 16 years of experience practicing employment and labor law, Rowe Manasan brings a pragmatic and strategic perspective to advising employers – one shaped by more than a decade serving as in-house counsel to privately-held companies across diverse industries.

Before joining Fisher Phillips, Rowe served as Associate General Counsel at a diversified international management company, where he advised subsidiary companies on a broad range of employment and compliance issues, from wage and hour compliance and workplace investigations to reductions in force and labor negotiations. His hands-on involvement with everything from corporate governance and pay practice audits to managing outside counsel in complex employment litigation – including wage and hour class actions, PAGA claims, and wrongful termination suits–allows him to spot risk and identify workable, business-aligned solutions for clients.
