Jennifer Rusie
Principal and Office Litigation Manager of the Nashville, Tennessee office of Jackson Lewis P.C.

Jennifer has handled hundreds of disability access matters involving architectural barriers, website and mobile app accessibility, disclosures of accessible features at hotels, and Braille gift cards. These matters span the country and include class-action lawsuits. She is also well-versed in assisting clients with evaluating and remediating barriers to access in both the physical and digital realms, and she regularly advises clients on accessibility policies and procedures.

Jennifer also focuses her practice on employment litigation, with a particular emphasis on sexual harassment and discrimination claims.  Jennifer is a strong advocate for her clients in and out of the courtroom.  One example of Jennifer’s litigation experience is her jury trial against the EEOC in the MDTN in a case involving the sexual harassment of three minor employees at a retail store.

Clients frequently turn to Jennifer for advice on all aspects of the employer / employee relationship, and she works closely with them to devise strategies that align with their unique culture and goals. When necessary, she also defends them in court, up to and including arbitration or trial.
