Teti has been elected as a Fellow in Labor to the College of Labor and Employment Lawyers. This is the highest recognition by one’s colleagues of sustained, outstanding performance in the profession, exemplifying integrity, dedication and excellence. Teti is the only union-side lawyer from the Philadelphia region to have been elected to the College this term.

“This is a well-deserved honor for Ralph, who has dedicated his legal career to ensuring that the rights of hard-working men and women are respected and enforced,” said Deborah R. Willig, managing partner of Willig, Williams & Davidson.

Teti focuses his practice on the representation of labor unions and their members, including representation of clients in grievance and interest arbitrations, state and federal courts, and before numerous boards, agencies and commissions.

“I am truly honored to be chosen as a Fellow of the College, and especially honored to be the only union-side lawyer from the Philadelphia area to have been elected this term,” said Teti. “Protecting the rights of union workers is important for everyone, because when workers’ wages and benefits are protected, the middle class is strengthened, the economy is boosted, and the quality of life is improved for all of us.”
