Husch Blackwell Expands Labor and Employment Practice with Kyle Russell in Kansas City

Husch Blackwell, a well-established law firm, has recently bolstered its labor and employment and higher education practices in Kansas City, Missouri. The firm accomplished this by bringing on board experienced lawyer Kyle Russell, as a significant addition to the team, as communicated by the firm last Tuesday.

Kyle Russell’s remarkable proficiency particularly lies in representing employers in administrative charges and lawsuits, predominantly those involving statutory and common law claims. This further extends to his ability to robustly defend wage and hour collective and class actions.

Moreover, Russell’s experience is not just limited to court or legal disputes. It also covers providing crucial consultancy to employers regarding the execution of nationwide arbitration agreement programs. Before joining Husch Blackwell, Russell worked with the law firm Jackson Lewis, cultivating his expertise in labor and employment law.

As stated in Bloomberg Law Automation, this recent move by Husch Blackwell seems to be in line with its goal of continually strengthening its team and ensuring competent representation for its clients.
