Exhibit G Law Firm has announced that Rebeca Rodriguez, Esq. has joined the firm as an attorney, focusing on labor and employment law, workplace accessibility, and compliance. Rodriguez is not new to the firm; she previously served as a law clerk there during her legal studies, supporting attorneys with pre-suit work that included drafting charges before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, preparing demand letters and deposition questions, and handling client communications. Her return to the firm in a full-time capacity signals continuity and growth for the practice, which serves both businesses and individuals across South Florida.
Rodriguez's background is distinctive. She earned her MBA and a Bachelor's degree in Human Resource Management from Florida State University, and her J.D. from the University of Miami School of Law. That combination informs how she approaches employment matters, particularly on the employer side, where questions of wage and hour practice, accommodation, and policy administration are as much operational as legal. During law school, she interned with the City of Miami's Office of the City Attorney in its Labor and Employment Division, observing trials, arbitrations, depositions, and quasi-judicial hearings while conducting legal research and assisting with case management. That placement gave her exposure to employment matters from the perspective of a public employer, a vantage point that complements the firm's work advising private businesses.
Giselle Gutierrez, Esq., founding attorney of Exhibit G Law Firm, emphasized the value of Rodriguez's prior experience with the firm. "Rebeca has been part of this practice through a period of substantial growth, and she arrives in this role with an understanding of our matters that ordinarily takes a new attorney considerable time to develop," Gutierrez said. "Her human resources training is equally valuable. A great many employment disputes originate in decisions made long before counsel is retained, and an attorney who understands how those decisions are actually made inside an organization is better positioned to address them."
Rodriguez herself noted how her human resources background shapes her legal approach. "Compliance problems are rarely the product of bad intent," she said. "More often they reflect a policy that was never updated or a practice that drifted from what the handbook describes. Identifying those issues early is substantially less costly for an employer than litigating them later."
Rodriguez has been actively involved in the legal community as a first-generation law student and now attorney. During law school, she served as President of the Disability Law Students Association and as a member of the Honor Council. She also participated in the Cuban American Bar Association, Miami Law Women, and the Labor and Employment Law Section of the Florida Bar. In 2025, she received the Labor and Employment Law Section of the Florida Bar's Law Student Scholarship and the Miami-Dade FAWL Foundation's Sookie Williams Memorial Scholarship. She continues her involvement through memberships in the Cuban American Bar Association, Miami-Dade Florida Association for Women Lawyers, and the Florida Bar's Labor and Employment Law, Business Law, Trial Lawyers, and Young Lawyers sections.

For HR vendors, Rodriguez's hire underscores the growing need for legal expertise that understands HR operations. As compliance and workplace accessibility issues gain prominence, vendors that offer solutions for policy management, accommodation tracking, and wage-and-hour compliance may find new opportunities. Attorneys like Rodriguez, who can bridge the gap between legal requirements and HR practices, are increasingly valuable to employers seeking to mitigate risk. This trend suggests that HR technology and services that facilitate proactive compliance and seamless policy administration will be in higher demand. Vendors should consider how their offerings align with the operational realities of HR decision-making, as early identification of compliance gaps can reduce costly litigation.
