Orange County, CA, March 3, 2020 - We are excited to welcome Judy Y. Chiang as a partner in Tressler’s Orange County office. Her practice areas include management-side labor and employment litigation defense involving discrimination, harassment and wage and hour claims.

She prepares and reviews personnel policies, employee handbooks and other employment-related materials to ensure a compliant and effective employment platform. Judy is also very knowledgeable in handling workplace violence restraining orders and has represented several employers and attended numerous hearings statewide and prevailed in obtaining the restraining orders.
“I am thrilled to join Tressler and am very honored to be presented this opportunity to join the Team," said Judy Chiang.
Prior to joining Tressler, Judy was a partner at a well-known law firm, where she was Chair of the firm’s Employment Practice Group of the Irvine office, with an emphasis in defending property management companies and owners in discrimination, harassment, fair housing, habitability and wage and hour claims. She has settled and tried numerous cases. Judy is an aggressive litigator who will vigorously litigate and defend the clients’ interests.
