Janet Grumer

Janet Grumer has more than 20 years of experience as a business executive, which is a proven asset to her practice, allowing her to provide practical, real-world advice and counsel to her employment and ADA clients. She draws upon her extensive management experience to help multiple-location retail, restaurants, movie theaters, and other businesses work through employment issues and find workable solutions. Often referred to as an “employment guru,” she is able to break down complex situations into manageable parts and bring disputes to resolution, whether that means preventing a lawsuit from being filed, or defending single plaintiff and class action lawsuits in court.

As Chair of the Employment Division of DWT’s National Restaurant Practice Group, Janet has extensive experience in hospitality-related businesses. She also assists a wide variety of healthcare institutions and businesses, technology companies, manufacturing companies, and other businesses. Clients often say, “Janet gets us,” because having been there herself, she knows what it is like to be in the shoes of those she serves and how to best maneuver through difficult situations. Janet represents companies in court and before administrative agencies in all manner of employment laws, including discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wage-and-hour law. She also focuses on public accommodations law under the ADA.
