About

MMC employment head John Hamlin established and currently leads the company’s internal global network, Employment Law Council, designed to share information, resources, and strategy. The issue of limited resource, Hamlin explains, is a growing challenge faced by corporate counsel dealing with labor and employment. ‘Corporations that are going to thrive need to do “more with less” year after year,’ he says. ‘Meanwhile, US and international labor and employment regulation becomes more complex’. Leading a team of three lawyers, Hamlin handles all employment law support in the US and advises on matters internationally. ‘I have had the opportunity and the support from my department to build a talented team of employment lawyers,’ he says. ‘That’s been a highlight of my career to date – and an enormous pleasure’.
