Fisher Phillips Opens New York Office With Ogletree Team

The article, “Fisher Phillips Opens New York Office With Ogletree Team,” featured in Daily Report, highlighted the opening of Fisher Phillips New York office, a five-lawyer team recruited from Ogletree Deakins Nash Smoak & Stewart.

"This is a big deal for us," said Roger Quillen, the chairman of the Atlanta-based labor and employment firm. Labor and employment firms did not use to feel the need to have a New York office, but Roger said that has changed with the globalization of law. As Fisher Phillips has grown nationally, its clients and potential clients have become more national and international.

"We are attracting more attention from national and multinational companies, and those decision-makers consider a New York presence to be vital," Roger said. "New York is the financial capital of the world, and international companies look to it as the center of things."

Launching a New York office with a strong team has been a top goal for the firm for the past year, Roger said. "We are very pleased to be opening with such outstanding people."
