ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 

We would like to especially acknowledge the extraordinary commitment of Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe to this project.  Orrick, Herrington attorneys contributed several hundred pro bono hours to the Employment Law Guide in 2006 alone, not to mention their considerable expertise.  Their work informs numerous sections of the Guide and will be of enormous benefit to the nonprofit organizations and volunteer attorneys who will use it as a reference.

We are also grateful to attorneys at Dechert LLP; Grotta Glassman & Hoffman, P.A.; Hann Financial Service Corporation; McCarter & English, LLP; and Reed Smith LLP who made important contributions to sections of the Guide.    We were able to complete this important project thanks to the combined efforts of many dedicated volunteers.
