Fisher Phillips Partner Recognized Again as a Client Service All-Star

Fisher Phillips, one of the country’s preeminent labor and employment law firms representing employers, is pleased to announce that J. Hagood Tighe was named to BTI Consulting Group’s list of 2022 Client Service All-Stars. He was also awarded BTI’s MVP distinction, an honor given to lawyers named to the list in consecutive years.

Hagood received top honors from corporate counsel for his steadfast commitment to providing excellent client service. He is a partner in Fisher Phillips’ Columbia, SC office and is co-chair of firm’s national Wage and Hour practice. In recent years, he has handled over 40 class and collective actions throughout the country, many of which involve wage and hour issues. Hagood also has extensive experience defending single plaintiff lawsuits alleging wrongful discharge, discrimination, harassment and retaliation. While he maintains an active litigation practice, he also focuses on providing practical and proactive advice designed to minimize the risk of litigation. Hagood enjoys working with companies to help them avoid problems before they arise. This takes many forms including advising on handbooks, policies, employment agreements, investigations, layoffs and terminations. 

According to the BTI report, the “All-Star” designation honors attorneys who “demonstrate an unrelenting pursuit to find what best fulfills clients’ needs. Legal decision makers say these attorneys have an unquenchable thirst to understand their clients better than all other attorneys.”
