About Fosbinder & Van Kampen, PLLC
One of the Few North Carolina Firms Focusing Exclusively on Employment Law
North Carolina’s federal courts are widely recognized as some of the most conservative courts in the nation. As a result, it can be a challenge to prevail in employment law cases here. Only a small handful of firms in North Carolina practice employment law exclusively.
Fosbinder and Van Kampen is one of them.
Our firm is devoted to representing employees against their employers in employment law disputes. Our attorneys consult with each other on every case and lead an experienced team of legal professionals who are well versed in employment law matters.
Julie Fosbinder is a former senior trial attorney for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and has more than 20 years of employment law experience. Josh Van Kampen spent years defending employers and receiving first-rate training at the prestigious Chicago law firms Seyfarth Shaw LLP and Franczek Sullivan before devoting his career to representing individuals who have been victims of discrimination in North Carolina.
Together, attorneys Fosbinder and Van Kampen have created a law firm that can provide sophisticated, experienced and high-end representation to employees who have suffered discrimination or sexual harassment in the Charlotte, North Carolina area.

An Outstanding Record of Successful Results
Our thorough, detailed methods have yielded impressive results:
- In 2006, we won a $1.25 million arbitration verdict against A.G. Edwards — one of the largest employment law settlements in North Carolina history.
- In July 2008, we secured what has been reported to be one of the largest payouts ever to a county executive in North Carolina according to the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners.
Obviously, every case is different and it would be a mistake for a potential client to assume that we can achieve the same results for them that we have secured in other matters. However, we believe our firm's favorable track record is a result of the hard work and dedication we demonstrate in every case.
Accepting a Limited Number of Cases
We believe that we devote more time and effort to our cases than the typical employee-side law firm. By emphasizing quality over quantity in our case selection, we feel we can more effectively serve our clients’ interests. For those potential clients we are unable to assist, we can refer them to other skilled counsel.
Collaboration and Communication
Given the challenges inherent in bringing a successful employment law claim, it is imperative that attorneys and clients collaborate closely from the outset of the case. We devote extensive time to meeting with our clients to ensure we are armed with as much information as possible, avoiding or even eliminating mistakes or miscommunications. We take our obligation seriously to return client phone calls promptly, and we expect the same diligence from our firm’s clients.
A Truly Modern, Tech-Savvy Law Firm
The more complex litigation becomes, the more essential it is for attorneys to understand modern data management and electronic record-keeping systems. The law also changes constantly. We stay up to date to make sure our methods and strategies change with it.
We handle all kinds of employment law disputes, including discrimination, harassment, civil rights violations, as well as representation involving severance negotiations and non-compete disputes.
