Stecovich joins law firm of Fahey Schultz in Okemos

Ryan Stecovich joined the Okemos law firm of Fahey Schultz Burzych Rhodes PLC in March, where he focuses his practice on labor and employment law, municipal law, and general litigation.

He becomes the 15th attorney at the firm, which now serves more than 150 municipalities, drain commissioners, libraries, and public authorities, as well as dozens of businesses in its expanding franchise practice.

Stecovich earned his undergrad degree in political science and psychology from the University of Toledo and his juris doctor from WMU-Cooley Law School.

He spent 15 years working for two large publicly traded companies and one large healthcare system focusing on labor and employee relations, gaining extensive knowledge and experience in handling grievances and arbitrations, negotiating multiple collective bargaining agreements, handling Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) claims, unemployment claims, and serving as primary advisor to management in navigating labor and employment law.

“Ryan’s experience provides him with a broad understanding of the legal issues facing our public and private employer clients.  We are delighted to have Ryan join our firm to help us serve our growing list of clients,” said Mark Burzych, president of the firm.

“He brings extensive experience in labor and employment law to our team.”
