Hecker Fink received a “shout-out” in Am Law Litigation Daily’s “Litigator of the Week” feature for their representation of the National Job Corps Association in a challenge to the U.S. Department of Labor’s May 2025 efforts to terminate the Job Corps program, which provides workforce training and other services for thousands of disadvantaged young people nationwide.

The Hecker Fink team secured a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction that blocked the Department’s attempts to effectively shut down the program. Last week, the team finalized a settlement between the National Job Corps Association and other key Job Corps stakeholders and the Department of Labor, which reversed the Department’s actions to terminate the program and secured long-term protections for Job Corps.

The Hecker Fink team includes Amy Jeffress, Max Feldman, Minahil Khan, and Disha Verma.
