Brittany A. Stevens
Phillips & Associates, Attorneys at Law, PLLC
I have considerable experience representing employees in a wide range of employment discrimination matters. I manage a variety of cases involving sexual harassment, retaliation, and discrimination based on race, national origin, gender, pregnancy, age, disability, religion, caregiver status, and sexual orientation. I have handled numerous cases from inception through settlement.
I zealously advocate for women's rights and am committed to helping women in the workplace. I am a passionate litigator who believes strongly in civil rights and fairness throughout the work environment.
I have obtained significant awards and settlements for her clients. Remarkably, I've received a judgment for $424,197 in a retaliation, FLSA and NYLL case in 2018. In 2018, I was recognized as a "Rising Star" by New York Super Lawyers for my contributions in employment discrimination. I have also been recognized as a 2018 "Best Attorney" by the Best Attorneys of America Association and by the American Institute of Legal Counsel. In addition, I've been recently added as a member of the "Top Verdicts and Settlements" by the American Institute of Legal Counsel. Most notably, I've been added as a member of the "Million Dollar Advocates Forum" where I am recognized as a top trial lawyer in America.
I joined Phillips & Associates in early 2015. I am admitted to practice in New York State and both the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York. I am also an active member of NELA/NY, and a member of the New York City Bar Association. I graduated from Skidmore College in 2010 and earned my J.D. from the University of San Francisco School of Law in 2014.
