David M. Wissert is Chair of the firm's Employment Litigation Group and a member of the firm's Litigation Department, where he practices employment and general commercial litigation.  Mr. Wissert's practice encompasses a wide array of litigation and counseling under federal and state laws, including representing management in discrimination actions, contract actions, disputes over non-competition and confidentiality agreements, and other business torts. Mr. Wissert is also a member of the firm's Employment Law Practice Group and is listed in the 2008 edition of Chambers USA Guide to America's Leading Lawyers for Business, which praises him as "highly effective at turning tough cases around," and notes his "great ability to connect with juries." Following graduation from law school, Mr. Wissert clerked for New Jersey Superior Court Assignment and Chancery Judge Wilfred P. Diana.

Mr. Wissert represented the New Jersey Defense Association as amicus in the case of Maw v. Advanced Clinical, in which the New Jersey Supreme Court agreed that terminating an employee who refuses to sign a noncompete agreement does not constitute a violation of the New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act, reversing the New Jersey Appellate Division's decision.
