    Leading Labor & Employment Lawyer Scott A. Faust Joins Proskauer

    Addition Continues Expansion of Global Labor & Employment Department, Enhances Boston Practice

    September 7, 2010 (Boston, MA) – Nationally recognized labor and employment lawyerScott A. Faust has joined Proskauer’s Boston office as a Partner in the Labor & Employment Law Department, enhancing the firm’s labor-management relations and employment law capabilities, and further fueling the department’s global expansion.

    Prior to joining Proskauer, Mr. Faust was co-Chair of the national labor and employment practice at McDermott Will & Emery LLP, where he represented employers in all aspects of traditional labor relations, including collective bargaining, grievance arbitration, mediation, union avoidance, proceedings before the National Labor Relations Board, strike preparation and management, strategic planning, and employment law. He also advises clients in connection with the labor and employment aspects of corporate transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, facility shutdowns and dispositions, reductions in force, Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and other forms of corporate restructuring.

    Clients he has represented in recent years include Unilever, Severstal, Noranda Alumina, Kaiser Aluminum, Harbinger Capital Partners, DTE Energy Services, Millipore, Robert Half International, Gorton’s, and Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, among many others. Mr. Faust received his bachelor’s degree from the University of Virginia and his law degree from Boston College Law School.

    He is the latest addition to Proskauer’s Labor & Employment Department, which, in recent months, welcomed former National Labor Relations Board General Counsel Ronald Meisburg, who practices in Washington, DC, and former Metropolitan Transit Authority Chief Labor Negotiator and executive Gary Dellaverson in New York. The firm also recently expanded its employment practice to London with the addition of Daniel Ornstein, established a Midwest presence with the addition of Nigel Telman in Chicago, and welcomed a group of pre-eminent employee benefit lawyers led by Paul M. Hamburger to its Washington, DC office.

    “Scott is one of the best and most well-recognized labor lawyers in the country. His experience, particularly in the manufacturing industry, including the steel and automotive sectors, will be an important strategic complement to what is already one of the country’s strongest and most effective labor and employment practices,” said Paul Salvatore, co-Chair of Proskauer’s Labor & Employment Law Department. “He is extremely well-rounded across a range of disciplines and is respected by both management and labor; his experience and insight will benefit us greatly as we continue to expand both in the U.S. and globally.”

    Mr. Faust is also the latest addition to Proskauer’s Boston office, joining Daniel Winslow, a former trial court judge and Chief Legal Counsel to Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney and Scott Brown’s U.S. Senate campaign; Justin Daniels, an experienced patent litigator; and Charles Mokriski, who focuses on legal ethics and law firm practice issues.

    “Scott is the perfect addition to our Boston platform and truly emblematic of our strategy – a strong local presence balanced with a broad-ranging national practice. We look forward to his contributions,” said Steve Ellis, head of Proskauer’s Boston office.

    Consistently ranked in the top tier by Chambers USA and called “the 800-pound gorilla of labor relations” and “perhaps the most outstanding labor law firm in the country” by US Legal 500, Proskauer’s lawyers are recognized across the board as having a stellar reputation for labor matters and being among the best practitioners in the field. In addition to representing the National Football League, National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League in their ongoing, high-profile collective bargaining negotiations, Proskauer recently advised the Realty Advisory Board, which represents New York City’s building owners, in its contract negotiations with the city’s more than 30,000 apartment building workers, one of many such successful representations of management across the country.

    In addition to its labor and employment practice, Proskauer’s Boston office is home to one of the world’s top private investment funds practices, leading corporate finance and transactional groups, and preeminent patent law, intellectual property and litigation practices. "
