We provide a range of services: 1. Drafting employment contracts, 2. Drafting contracts for executive-level employees, 3. Preparation of employee handbooks, 4. Formulation of effective employee and HR policies in compliance with State and Federal laws, 5. Structuring of non-compete, non-solicitation, confidentiality, and other restrictive covenants (as well as assisting individuals to overcome unreasonably-broad restrictive covenants impeding their ability to work in their chosen field), 6. Mediating employment disputes, 7. Dealing with disputes with labor unions, and 8. Litigating cases before courts or arbitral tribunals, on issues such as, non-payment of due wages or bonus, overtime wages, breach/enforcement of employment contracts, breach/enforcement of non-compete agreements, misappropriation of trade secrets and proprietary information, retaliation, discriminatory practices, among others. We understand the underlying emotions of each employment dispute and handle such cases with the requisite sensitivity and caution.
