He spoke on a panel dedicated to “Emerging Issues for Effective Representation of Non-Citizen Workers.” MWELA is the membership organization of approximately 400 plaintiff’s employment lawyers in the Washington, DC metro area.

David spoke about best practices in representing immigrant workers, particularly in wage-and-hour claims. Issues discussed included providing balanced advice to prospective clients who are considering employment claims, preserving claims, mitigating risk, and—above all—protecting workers’ rights. Other issues discussed included pursuing trafficking claims on behalf of workers who are victims of labor trafficking.
