Cam’s practice focuses on representing and counseling private employers facing systemic risks to their workforce, typically involving large-scale discrimination or wage-and-hour issues. In particular, Cam represents employers nationwide in class action litigation and in U.S. Department of Labor investigations, often including federal contractors.
Having practiced in both the private and federal government sectors for over a decade, Cam’s experience gives him a unique perspective in representing clients. He is particularly adept in advising on compliance with non-discrimination laws, federal government investigations, systemic discrimination claims, compliance with federal contractors’ wage-and-hour requirements, and pay equity.
Immediately before joining Ogletree Deakins, Cam was a trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Labor. In that role, he advised DOL agencies on a wide range of regulatory, employment, and enforcement issues, including acting as a government contracts liaison for the Wage and Hour Division. Cam also litigated scores of matters in federal courts and administrative venues on behalf of DOL agencies, including the Wage and Hour Division, the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and the Employee Benefits Security Administration. Cam also defended discrimination claims against DOL agencies and advised on pending agency investigations.
Prior to his position as a trial attorney, Cam litigated scores of business and employment litigation matters on behalf of plaintiffs and defendants and developed particular experience representing plaintiffs and defendants in False Claims Act, trade secret, and non-compete litigation. After law school, Cam clerked for U.S. District Court Judge L. Scott Coogler in the Northern District of Alabama and for Judge Eric G. Bruggink of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims.
