October 21, 2019 in Firm News

NEWARK, NJ, October 21, 2019 – Walsh Associate Caitlin P. Cascino and her husband, Jordan, have generously established The Caitlin P. ’12 and Jordan Cascino Annual Scholarship Fund at Seton Hall Law School. She is a Seton Hall Law alumna and Jordan is a 2011 Seton Hall M.A. alumnus.

A scholarship recipient herself, Caitlin understands the profound impact scholarships can have. “We’re very excited to be able to fund scholarships that give deserving students the chance to obtain a legal education. My scholarship allowed me to do what I wanted to do: I wasn’t stuck going into work I didn’t enjoy. It’s important for me to offer someone that same opportunity, someone who needs it. I believe in giving back.”

With strong family ties to the school, Seton Hall was Cascino’s law school of choice to focus on employment law. She credits Deans Sullivan and Glynn for “laying the foundation for the real world practicing I do now.”

At Walsh, Caitlin is a litigator who defends employers of all sizes and varying industries in state and federal court and before administrative agencies. She represents management against single- and multi-employee claims alleging workplace discrimination, harassment, whistleblower retaliation, and breach of contract. She also litigates matters involving breaches of post-employment restrictive covenants.

In addition, she works closely with in-house counsel, business executives, and human resources professionals, advising management on matters related to employee hiring, discipline, terminations, leaves of absence, and accommodations. Caitlin also handles traditional labor matters, including union elections, collective bargaining negotiations, unfair labor practice charges, and grievance arbitrations, on behalf of employers.
