Coppersmith Brockelman Managing Partner Kent Brockelman discussed the evolution of the human resources profession alongside other experts in an article for the 2018 edition of AzBusiness Leaders.  Kent notes that new state laws, like Arizona’s paid sick time law, and uncertainty about federal laws such the Affordable Care Act will have a measurable impact on employers and their human resources departments.

As the Arizona Republic found out, Coppersmith Brockelman isn’t your typical law firm. Down-to-earth. Diverse. Hardworking. Client-first attitude. It’s those qualities that stood out to reporter Georgann Yara, as she profiled the firm for Arizona’s statewide daily newspaper. The article spotlighted Coppersmith Brockelman’s immense success in a wide range of practice areas – including health care, elections/politics, employment, employee benefits and commercial litigation –  while bucking the stereotypes associated with most law firms. “We work hard, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously,” said Keith Beauchamp, a partner.
