        Associate

        Hannah excels in relationship-building and problem solving to support clients through the intricacies of employment law.

        Hannah’s practice focuses on assisting employers in maintaining compliance with up-to-date legal obligations. With clients’ business goals in mind, she prepares carefully drafted employment agreements, policies and provides guidance on employee-related concerns. Hannah also advises employers of varying sizes on termination policy, employee relations, discrimination and federal and state leave requirements.

        Hannah also advises employers and individuals on immigration‑related compliance and employment‑based immigration matters. Her work includes counseling on Form I‑9 completion, audits and recordkeeping; advising on maintenance of lawful immigration status; and responses to Notices of Inspection and other government inquiries. She also assists with employment‑based work authorization issues, extensions and compliance obligations, helping employers support foreign national employees while minimizing risk.

        Before going to law school, Hannah completed her Masters of Social Work at the University of Pittsburgh. During law school, she worked with the Office of General Counsel at Boston Children’s Hospital, where she did legal research on compliance and employer regulations and was a judicial intern for the Honorable Peter Krupp at Suffolk County Superior Court in Massachusetts.

        In her free time, Hannah likes to spend time exploring Maine beaches, swimming with her partner and dog, Charli, and trying new restaurants around the Portland area.
