California

Founded in 2019 as a boutique dedicated to commercial and employment litigation, Berman North has risen as a formidable opponent against nationally recognized litigators and firms in California courts. The firm is home to Stacy North and Scott Berman, both of whom bring extensive experience and expertise in employment law and litigation. North handles unique cases on both sides of the “v”, mostly representing individuals against former or current employers.  North also defends clients against employers in employee mobility and restrictive covenant cases. Over the last year, she has obtained favorable rulings and settlements for clients. In one recent matter, she successfully defeated a motion to compel arbitration on behalf of her client. Scott Berman’s practice is a fusion of employment and business litigation. Like North, he also represents clients in either a plaintiff or defendant capacity, and additionally, represents companies in his business litigation practice, giving a well-rounded perspective to clients seeking employment counsel. Berman’s recent casework in the employment space has largely focused on retaliation and wrongful termination cases, as well as wage and hour related disputes under state and federal laws.
