Narrative Biography: A Partner in Hahn Loeser’s Cleveland office since 2007 and current Chair of the Firm’s Labor and Employment Group, Steven E. Seasly has nearly 30 years of labor and employment law experience – exclusively representing and counseling employers across the country on the wide variety of employment and labor law issues. His breadth of experience includes complex employment law litigation, collective and/or class action wage and hour litigation, labor arbitrations, union avoidance campaigns, wage and hour audits and investigations, health and safety investigations and hearings, Title IX investigations, workers’ compensation hearings, collective bargaining sessions, employment law training seminars, and counseling clients on day-to-day employment and labor issues.

Steven has represented private companies and public corporations, universities, non-profit organizations, and other entities in internal and external workplace investigations. These investigations have included harassment claims, whistleblower claims, claims of fraud and other allegations of unlawful behavior.

Steven has represented mom and pop as well as large, national companies in the technology, manufacturing, transportation, higher education, energy, food services, health care and nursing home industries with issues arising in the ever-increasing complex world of employment litigation and labor arbitrations.

Narrative Biography: For nearly 35 years John Bonnie has adeptly guided insurance companies in their good faith handling of complex insurance claims and disputes, and aggressively defended carriers in multi-party, high dollar value coverage litigation and arbitration matters, nationally and internationally. His practice is highly focused: counseling and providing legal representation to insurance providers and other organizations retaining or transferring risk, and this singular legal concentration translates to an unmatched reputation and level of experience in the insurance coverage space. A hallmark of John’s work as a lawyer is civility and professionalism, while simultaneously demonstrating the highest level of zealous advocacy on behalf of his clients. John is an active leader in the insurance coverage space nationally, serving as co-chair of the Insurance Coverage Litigation Committee of the American Bar Association’s Section of Litigation, and as a Fellow and member of the Board of Regents of the American College of Coverage Counsel. He is a co-author of the treatise Georgia Insurance Litigation (now in its eighth edition), and is a frequent speaker, writer and thought leader on a wide range of insurance coverage issues. John and the Weinberg Wheeler Insurance Practice Group have been ranked in Band 1 for Insurance by Chambers USA since 2021.
