Littler, the world’s largest employment and labor law practice representing management, has added Jacqueline A. Mrachek as a shareholder in its Minneapolis office. Mrachek joins from Faegre Baker Daniels, where she co-led the firm’s employment litigation practice.
“Jacqueline has developed a strong reputation for successfully representing clients in employment litigation and providing counsel on the myriad issues that arise in the workplace, along with meaningful connections in the Twin Cities business community,” said Susan Fitzke, Littler’s office managing shareholder in Minneapolis. “We’re excited to have an attorney of Jacqueline’s caliber join the firm and further bolster the depth of our Minneapolis office.”
Mrachek counsels and defends companies in a wide range of employment law matters, including harassment, discrimination, retaliation, wage and hour compliance, drug and alcohol testing, and disability and medical leave requirements. She also regularly conducts workplace investigations and counsels on the enforcement of noncompetes, restrictive covenants and other employment contracts. Mrachek has represented employers before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Minnesota Department of Human Rights, and has extensive experience in such sectors as automotive, retail, financial services, health care, insurance, manufacturing and medical devices.
“I’m thrilled to be joining Littler’s talented team in Minneapolis and look forward to leveraging the firm’s unmatched resources and global platform to serve our clients,” Mrachek said. “I’ve also always been impressed by Littler’s tenaciousness and commitment to innovation, which has spurred new technologies and approaches that are evolving the way employment law is practiced.”
Mrachek received her J.D. from Mitchell Hamline School of Law and her B.A. from College of Saint Benedict. She is a former president of Minnesota Women Lawyers and serves on its advisory board.
