Employment Law
The firm has been drafting employee contracts for over 32 years, with special emphasis on physicians’ and other professionals’ contracts where ownership is contemplated after a period of years. Employee policy manuals, sexual harassment policies, non-compete agreements, independent contractors’ consulting agreements – these are just a few of the documents we generate on a frequent basis.
We’ve represented many employees accused of violating a non-compete provision. Most cases are settled, sometimes in mediation, more often after filing claims, counterclaims, and motions in court or arbitration.
No business is immune from a disgruntled employee’s claims of sexual harassment, maintaining a “hostile work environment,” or retaliation, but we work with clients to implement written policies that courts have found to provide protection against such claims. And if (or when) a claim is asserted, we know the right defense and litigation settlement strategies.
