About

John (Jack) Moran is a dedicated business litigator based in Cleveland, Ohio, specializing in employment law. With a strong commitment to advocating for employees, Jack focuses on representing individuals embroiled in litigation across Northeast Ohio and beyond. His practice primarily involves defending former employees facing lawsuits over alleged violations of non-competition and non-solicitation agreements. Additionally, he supports current and former employees in asserting their rights under overtime regulations and anti-discrimination laws. Jack possesses an in-depth knowledge of both federal and state laws designed to protect employees from retaliation, safeguard whistleblowers, and prevent discrimination based on age, race, gender, pregnancy, disability, and religious beliefs. Known for his tenacity in the courtroom, Jack has successfully secured favorable verdicts for his clients in various state and federal courts, as well as administrative agencies. Beyond employment law, Jack has extensive experience in non-employment business litigation. He has effectively represented both owners and contractors in construction disputes, demonstrating his versatility in handling complex legal issues. His success extends to property-related cases, where he frequently triumphs in foreclosure matters, and he has achieved significant tax reductions for both commercial and residential properties at county boards of revision. Jack’s impressive track record is complemented by his ability to negotiate lucrative settlements outside of court, often yielding some of his most impactful results. His dedication to his clients and his field has earned him recognition as the President of the Cleveland Employment Lawyers Association and a coveted spot on the Ohio Super Lawyers list as a “Rising Star,” an honor reserved for just 2.5% of attorneys in the state.
