Morgan, Brown & Joy Adds Amy Silverman Ostiguy as Of Counsel
Boston labor and employment law firm Morgan, Brown & Joy announces that Amy Silverman Ostiguy has rejoined the firm as Of Counsel. Ostiguy, who previously served as an associate at the firm for five years, counsels and defends employers in labor and employment matters, and advises management teams on important, and often difficult, issues arising in employer-employee relationships.
As a litigator, Ostiguy defends clients against allegations of harassment, discrimination, misconduct, wrongful termination, retaliation, and a range of other disputes brought by employees. She often helps clients avoid the cost and disruption of litigation by working through disputes using mediation, negotiations, and settlement. But should alternative methods not be in the client’s best interest, Ostiguy is an experienced and prepared advocate, appearing before state and federal courts and administrative agencies on behalf of her clients.
As a counselor, Ostiguy advises clients on proactive employment practices including hiring, employee accommodations, contracts, policies and handbooks. She also guides clients through sensitive scenarios such as addressing performance issues and terminations. Her experience also includes managing internal and agency investigations on behalf of employers.
Prior to joining Morgan, Brown & Joy, Ostiguy was an associate in a Boston-area boutique law firm representing corporate, institutional, and individual clients in employment law, business litigation, federal criminal investigations, and college and university law matters.
Ostiguy received her J.D. from Northeastern University School of Law, and her B.A. from Lehigh University.
