Morris Polich & Purdy Attorney Named as One of the Top Labor & Employment Lawyers in California

LOS ANGELES, July 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Morris Polich & Purdy LLP is pleased to announce that, at a reception in Los Angeles last night, partner Scott Freedman was named by the Daily Journal as one of the top labor and employment attorneys in California.

This esteemed recognition was awarded to Scott for his dedication to raising awareness of a new frontier in employment law: the social media landscape. In this new arena, which is constantly evolving due to technological advances, laws of all sorts are being shaped and molded to include applications that, until recently, simply did not exist. Scott specializes in the implications that these new internet-based services have for employment law and human resource issues, as well as representing companies in a wide range of other matters surrounding labor and employment.

"We are very excited that Scott received this recognition from the Daily Journal," says head of Morris Polich & Purdy's employment group, Beth Kahn.  "Scott has depth and breadth of expertise in the social media arena that helps employers avoid such issues, and when they do occur, he provides the best strategy to react and respond. Scott is an ABOTA attorney, and one of fifteen attorneys that make up the employment team at MPP."
