JILLIAN’S Story

Decades of Experience Advocating for Clients Like You

I founded Fairchild Employment Law to help those who have been wronged. I have extensive litigation experience representing all types of clients in all phases of litigation from inception through trial. 

Before starting Fairchild Employment Law, I spent 15 years as a defense attorney and defended employers in cases like wrongful termination and harassment.

I know exactly how they think and the tactics they use, which gives me a unique advantage in fighting for you.

Taking on your employer can feel overwhelming, but I will be here to guide you and make sure you are supported every step of the way.
