As a member of the Littler CaseSmart – Charges™ team and based in Nevada, Kaitlin Paxton is responsible for handling charges from investigation to conclusion. She works on client-dedicated service teams, focusing on handling administrative agency charges.

• Litigation from complaint and motion to dismiss stage to the discovery and related disputes stage, and all the way up to, most recently, a jury trial that resulted in a unanimous verdict for a client
• Traditional labor law including navigating clients through petitions for election, defending against ULP charges, and sitting at the bargaining table across from some of Las Vegas’ largest unions
