Since 1990, Bob Lipman has built one of the most successful, comprehensive and multi-faceted employment-law firms in the region. Effective, sensitive and forward-thinking, the Buffalo native has focused on employment law throughout his career. Today he and his unique four-attorney firm handle cases on behalf of plaintiffs and management alike. Indeed, Lipman's exceptional combination of skills and distinctive perspective have helped him form a versatile and prosperous boutique firm, providing legal advice at a personal level. His individual approach makes him effective across the employment spectrum. Lipman relates well to everyone, from senior executives to hourly laborers.

After law school, Lipman started at a major national firm specializing in employment law, and within five years built a reputation for effectively handling a variety of complex cases. Then Lipman struck out on his own, launching his own firm which his wife, Allison Plesur, soon joined. Today Lipman & Plesur, LLP, with offices in Jericho and Manhattan, has a record of accomplishment remarkable for a firm of its size.

Lipman is also an effective teacher and trainer. In 1996 he, with Ms. Plesur, created HRTrain.com, dedicated to providing quality online human resources training. HRTrain.com has produced a library of award winning on-line training designed to sensitize employees and supervisors on proper workplace policies and conduct. Now in his early 50's, Lipman is in his professional prime. He is poised to lead - and help define - the field of employment law for years to come. Lipman and his wife live in Jericho with their three children.
