Greenberg Traurig LLP issued the following announcement on Mar. 17.
Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, P.A. has expanded its Tampa office Labor & Employment Practice with the addition of Jennifer W. Corinis as Of Counsel.
“We are pleased to welcome Jennifer to Greenberg Traurig’s Tampa office and look forward to her playing an important role in our growing Labor & Employment practice,” said David B.

She is a strategic addition to our office, as we continue to strengthen team, to allow us to better serve growing client demand.”
Corinis has extensive trial and appellate experience, in both federal and state courts, focusing on claims of alleged individual and class discrimination, Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as well as complex medical malpractice and tort cases. Jennifer was most recently an Assistant U.S. Attorney in the Middle District of Florida where she gained valuable courtroom experience with approximately a dozen trials and more than ten oral arguments before the Eleventh Circuit.

“Greenberg Traurig provides an unparalleled global platform to develop my practice, particularly in the evolving area of Labor & Employment which affects businesses of all industries and sizes,” Corinis said. “I look forward to contributing to the continued success of the Tampa office’s Labor & Employment Practice and utilizing my experience to advise clients regarding their most challenging labor and employment legal issues.”
Corinis received her J. D., magna cum laude, from Boston University School of Law, and a B.A., magna cum laude, from Wellesley College. Following her graduation, she clerked for The Honorable Sandra L. Lynch on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.
