About Dena H. Sokolow
With more than 30 years of experience, I counsel and defend employers across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, and beyond in all aspects of labor and employment law. I partner with businesses to proactively manage risk, ensure compliance, and resolve workplace challenges—whether through litigation, audits, or strategic day-to-day guidance.I represent clients across industries including healthcare, hospitality, construction, retail, and staffing. My litigation work includes class and collective actions, arbitrations, and single and multi-plaintiff lawsuits, as well as administrative proceedings before federal and state agencies. I’ve handled a wide range of employment matters—discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, and FMLA.Wage and hour law is a significant focus of my practice, including Department of Labor audits, FLSA collective actions, and internal audits addressing independent contractor and exemption classification issues. I regularly advise clients on pay practices, timekeeping, job classification, and other compliance strategies to help avoid costly litigation and enforcement actions.Beyond litigation, I conduct proactive compliance audits and provide tailored training programs for leadership teams. My approach is direct, pragmatic, and business-minded. I work closely with clients to understand their operations and deliver legal solutions that align with long-term success.
