Meghan N. Hitch

Meghan focuses her Labor and Employment practice on helping management-side clients with a broad range of matters—from daily counseling through litigation. Enjoyable to work with, thorough, and dependable, Meghan strives to uncover what her clients really want to do in an employment matter by helping them establish their goals and understand all of their options so they can  make the best decision for them and their company. In 2019, she participated in the International Chambers of Commerce Mediation Competition in Paris, France. She earned a Certificate in Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and remains committed to the field of conflict avoidance, management and resolution. This experience with ADR helps inform her approach to assist clients with an emphasis on goal setting and cost-benefit analysis. Meghan guides clients through issues such as employee discipline and termination, reasonable accommodations, leave entitlements, wage and hour issues, and human resource policies and handbooks. Her ultimate objective is to develop a counseling relationship with her clients so that they can avoid employment problems before they begin.

Meghan provides anti-harassment, discrimination and retaliation training for employees at all levels and trains managers, human resource professionals, and compliance officers on conducting lawful and effective workplace investigations. She conducts internal employment investigations on behalf of her clients, makes recommendations to improve personnel management, and prepares employer responses to administrative charges and complaints, including those before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, New Jersey Division of Civil Rights, and Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission.
