He also brings small business and startup experience having counseled a range of companies on issues including organization, governance, compliance, financing, employment and labor, and contracts. A 2013 graduate of the American University Washington College of Law, he is a member of the DC Community Emergency Response Team and volunteers with the DCRA Small Business Brief Advice Legal Clinics.
Matthew Kelly joins the Labor, Employment & Immigration practice in the firm’s Seattle office. Previously an associate with Sebris Busto James, he counsels and represents employers in a broad range of employment-related matters, including wage and hour, discrimination, harassment, wrongful discharge, leaves of absence, and disability accommodations. Matthew has also defended employers in single-plaintiff and class action lawsuit litigation.
