More About Victoria
Victoria maintains a multifaceted labor and employment practice. She is an innovative litigator who defends clients against complex claims of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation under federal, state, and local laws. Victoria also represents clients in high-stakes, high-profile, single-plaintiff and class action cases, including wage and hour class and collective actions. She represents some of the leading names in the technology, retail, health care, and financial services industries. Victoria’s experience representing sophisticated employers across the nation has provided her with unique insight into the challenges that clients face in complex employment litigation.
Victoria also focuses on traditional labor law matters, such as maintaining positive employee relations, union-organizing campaigns, labor arbitration proceedings, collective bargaining support, and unfair labor practice matters. She provides training for clients on working in a unionized environment, and operational processes while union organizing is underway, among other matters. Victoria helps employers foster positive employee relations, so they can focus on corporate growth in both union or nonunion settings.
In addition to her litigation and traditional labor practices, Victoria advises clients on trending workplace law issues, wage and hour compliance, and employment and separation agreements. She draws on her counseling skills, as well as her litigation and employment law knowledge, to identify and resolve her clients’ legal issues before they advance to litigation or charges of unlawful conduct.

Fasciale, then a judge of the Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division, and today an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of New Jersey.
