Our attorneys focus on preventing issues through strategic planning and careful stewardship, working closely with clients to minimize or eliminate their exposure to liability and costly litigation.

  • Developing and maintaining clear employment agreements and handbooks
  • Executive compensation and benefits plans, including deferred compensation arrangements
  • Employment, tax and benefits compliance (including addressing the ever-evolving Affordable Care Act)
  • Minimizing liability for wrongful termination or violation of legal standards — including the WARN Act and state equivalents — for both individual terminations and major restructures or reductions in force
  • Investigating and navigating unemployment claims, workers’ compensation claims, Americans with Disabilities Act compliance, and allegations of discrimination or harassment
