He has practiced in the area for more than 21 years and handles the full range of labor and employment matters under both federal and state law. He is unique among his peers in his success at both the trial and appellate court levels. Clients not only trust him to litigate these high stakes matters at the pre-trial phase, but to try them.
Earlier this year, in Rice v. Gulfstream, following an eight day jury trial, Cripps won a complete defense verdict for Gulfstream in a long-running age discrimination, misclassification, and Cal-WARN action brought by a former employee who had been laid off during the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Jurors needed less than two hours to deliver a verdict for Gulfstream.
