Kegan S. Andeskie, ESQ.

Partner

Kegan S. Andeskie focuses his practice on defending employers in employment and labor litigation. He represents management in high-stakes disputes involving discrimination, harassment, retaliation, and wrongful termination under New Jersey and federal law. He also defends employers in wage and hour matters, including class and collective actions under the FLSA and New Jersey Wage and Hour Law and has significant experience litigating restrictive covenant disputes, including non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreement matters.

Kegan is an advocate who guides clients through every stage of the litigation process — from initial claims through discovery, motion practice, and trial. He prides himself on providing practical defense strategies that align with each client’s business needs while protecting them in court.

Kegan graduated magna cum laude from Seton Hall University School of Law and holds bachelor’s degrees in English and German Studies from Vassar College. When he’s not litigating on behalf of his clients, Kegan enjoys playing Dungeons & Dragons, a game that mirrors the strategic thinking and problem-solving skills he brings to his legal practice.
