Munger, Tolles & Olson Partner Katherine Forster Named to 2023 Leaders of Influence List by The Los Angeles Business Journal 

The Los Angeles Business Journal named Munger, Tolles & Olson partner Katherine Forster to its 2023 Leaders of Influence: Labor & Employment Attorneys list, which recognizes the very best employment and labor litigators and trial attorneys in the region.

The Los Angeles Business Journal highlighted Ms. Forster’s extensive experience as, “A seasoned employment practitioner, [who] has litigated scores of wage/hour class, collective and representative actions. She has particular experience in helping companies navigate highly sensitive claims for sexual harassment and abuse, gender discrimination, whistleblower retaliation and pay equity at the pre-filing stage…”

Ms. Forster was recognized for recent employment work, including defending See’s Candy Shops in a precedent-setting class action victory, and for her dedication to pro bono work and advancing LGBTQ+ rights. She was also recognized for her impressive work conducting independent investigations of alleged sexual misconduct by senior executives of multiple major companies and representing a global law firm in resolving pay equity and gender discrimination claims by two former partners on an individual basis, thereby avoiding a class/collective action filing.
