Craig Thorstenson concentrates his practice in the litigation of employment disputes and providing practical, business-focused counseling.
His experience includes prosecuting and defending actions over restrictive covenants, defending WARN Act, FLSA, Biometric Information Privacy Act, and Title VII class actions, and handling complex labor arbitrations.

Earlier in his career, Craig formed a partnership specializing in employment discrimination, primarily from the plaintiff's side, an experience that gives him a unique perspective when counseling and litigating.
