Stephen Rotter represents businesses and employers across the full range of workplace legal issues, from company formation and policy design to litigation defense. He also regularly represents companies in business dispute matters involving breach of contract, joint venture and shareholder disputes, and civil RICO claims.
Stephen leverages his experience as a federal prosecutor and his years at a large law firm to advise, defend, and litigate exclusively on behalf of employers and companies. His practice includes counseling businesses on compliance with discrimination laws and wage and hour regulations, building workplace protection and policy programs, defending companies against employee-initiated claims, conducting employer-directed workplace investigations, and prosecuting restrictive covenant and white-collar matters on behalf of businesses.
Stephen’s clients are companies — small businesses, growth-stage businesses, and employers seeking a modern, efficient, and practical approach to managing legal risk in the workplace.
Before his current role, Stephen owned an executive search firm, served as a Federal Prosecutor, and spent six years at a large law firm practicing employment law and litigation on behalf of corporate clients. He is known for his practical approach, problem-solving ability, efficiency, and skill as a negotiator.
Stephen graduated from Northwestern after earning the Evans Scholarship and ran his own company for several years before attending law school. He enjoys spending time with his wife — also an entrepreneur in the clothing and apparel industry — and their three kids, is a Bears and Broncos fan, and is an avid poker player.
