Suzanne Cerra

As an employment law attorney, Suzanne has devoted her career to representing employers, helping them avoid litigation wherever possible, and rigorously litigating cases in all areas of employment law. Suzanne is a strategic partner and trusted advisor to all her clients. She grew up in a loud Italian family that loves to eat and talk, more like argue, about politics. Suzanne is the mother of three children, and she completed the Big Sur Marathon with Katherin, when her oldest daughter, now nineteen, was only one. One of her proudest running accomplishments is completing a half marathon in under two hours. She is passionate, some might say addicted, to coffee and feminism, always striving for equality for everybody.

Katherin Nukk-Freeman

As a seasoned employment law attorney, training instructor, and thought leader in the industry, Katherin brings a wealth of expertise to her partnerships with clients. With a focus on risk management, compliance, and productivity, she helps organizations create better workplaces that foster growth, innovation, and success.

Katherin’s passion for employment law was innate as she is the granddaughter of an Estonian Immigrant who was discriminated against in hiring and was imprisoned because of his peaceful socialistic views which he shared in his role as Founder and Editor in Chief of the first national Estonian American newspaper. The ACLU successfully won his case before the US Supreme Court in Michael Nukk vs the United States, firmly implanting the Nukk family’s dedication to equality.

Outside of work, Katherin is a proud mother of three and a devoted football and lacrosse mom, supported by her amazing husband. She’s also an avid fan of hard-hitting tennis, California hikes, international travel, and leadership and unconscious bias literature. Driven by her incurable optimism and passion for problem-solving, Katherin approaches each challenge with a solutions-oriented mindset. She embraces feedback and data-driven analysis to identify better approaches and drive positive behaviors and decisions. For Katherin, it all starts with family, good friends, and wonderful colleagues, who inspire her to bring her best to everything she does.
