Edward F. Berbarie (pictured) became a shareholder in Littler Mendelson in Dallas on Jan. 1. He formerly was an associate with the employment and labor law firm.
“I defend and counsel companies in relation to all aspects of labor and employment law,” Berbarie says.
That includes representing employers in claims of discrimination and harassment, wage and hour disputes, union grievances and charges of unfair labor practices.
Berbarie says he graduated cum laude in 2004 from the University of Houston Law Center, where he was a member of the Order of Barristers.
Following graduation, he worked at the commercial litigation firm of Brady & Cole in Dallas, Berbarie says. He says he joined Littler in September 2007.
Berbarie says his activities outside the firm include coaching mock trial teams at Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law and serving on the board of directors of the Housing Crisis Center, which works to prevent homelessness and stabilize those at risk of becoming homeless.
