Noah A. Frank

Noah A. Frank is an experienced labor & employment counselor and litigator with over 15 years’ experience.

After graduating law school, cum laude, with a joint masters in human resources and industrial relations, he represented just about every sector of commerce and industry, ranging from energy, chemical and automotive manufacturers, cannabis cultivators and dispensaries, trade associations and chambers of commerce, law firms, mom’n’pop shops, medical practices, couriers, waste haulers, and restaurants (single site, franchisees, and franchisors). As the go-to legal resource and trusted business partner, he analyzes complex risks and formulates strategies for cost optimization, considering legal liability, litigation avoidance, and best practices. Noah provides practical and thoughtful advice, strategy, and solutions in a full range of employment, corporate, and workers’ compensation matters, including compliance, policy implementation, and risk mitigation of wage and hour, discrimination, harassment, leave interference and retaliation claims including under the FLSA, Title VII, ADA, ADEA, FMLA, OSHA, NLRA, Worker’s Compensation, and state and local laws. While in private practice, Noah’s peers recognized him as an Illinois Super Lawyers Rising Star each year 2012-2019.

From 2019-2013, Noah led the legal department of a national senior assisted living provider, including legal strategy related to COVID-19 vaccine mandates, implementation of a post-Dobbs medical travel benefit, and project management from conception through compliance. Noah’s partnership and guidance kept the company compliant with conflicting laws, saved the company substantial legal fees, and reduced the impact of litigation on the business and individuals. Noah advised the DIBs (Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging) Committee, and helped shepherd multiple Great Places to Work certifications.

He is a frequent author (most recently, the “Workers’ Compensation Compliance and Preparedness Audit” chapter in IICLE’s Conducting the Employment Practices Audit 2023 Edition), and speaker for various trade groups, chambers of commerce, and even the Illinois Human Rights Commission.

Since 2008, Noah has served as an arbitrator for the Cook County Circuit Court Mandatory Arbitration Program. In 2023, Noah earned his designation as a Certified Information Privacy Professional/United States (CIPP/US).

At Loftus & Eisenberg, Noah brings his experience representing businesses and executives to a host of boutique services within the employment realm including review of restrictive covenants (e.g., noncompete and non-solicitation agreements), job offer letters, terminations, and severances, and leave of absence and disability accommodation issues, tricky discrimination, harassment and retaliation issues.

When not practicing law, Noah spends his time with his family, refereeing soccer, playing broomball and softball, and participating in the community as an elected school board member and serving on nonprofit boards.
