Mickey Silberman

Founder & Shareholder 

For more than 30 years, Mickey has represented management in all areas of employment law, specializing in equal employment opportunity, artificial intelligence in the workplace, pay equity, and workplace inclusion.

Mickey is recognized as a national expert in the areas of pay equity and systemic pay discrimination. He works closely with clients and a team of statisticians to prepare pay equity analyses both on a proactive basis and also in response to EEOC and state enforcement agency pay investigations and private pay litigation. Mickey regularly defends employers against claims of systemic pay discrimination. He also advises clients on pay system design and administration to identify and address often subtle or hidden barriers to pay equity.

Mickey spends much of his time counseling employers on complex “real world” issues such as artificial intelligence and workplace inclusion. Mickey works closely with clients in the lawful design and successful inclusion programs.

In addition, Mickey helps clients integrate artificial intelligence in employment processes in a lawful and effective way. Mickey and his team conduct "bias audits" to ensure compliance with emerging state, federal and international AI laws.

For the firm's government contractor clients, Mickey directs the preparation of EEO analyses to ensure employers can accurately certify legal compliance. And, he prepares required Affirmative Action Plans for covered veterans and individuals with disabilities.

Mickey is among the nation's leading trainers on workplace law. He regularly presents training for the C-Suite, management, HR, and talent acquisition professionals.

He also is the Co-chair of the Institute for Workplace Equality, a national employer association. Through his role with the Institute, he meets with OFCCP, EEOC and other federal agency national leadership to present the employer community’s perspective on proposed laws and regulations and agency enforcement trends.
