Company description
I represent professionals to resolve - and avoid - problems at work. It's not a question as to whether you'll need a lawyer but when. When you're facing legal problems and internal strife, you want a lawyer who is smart, experienced, and know what to do without hesitation.
Since graduating #1 in my law school class, I have successfully handled hundreds of cases and appeals during my 30+ years as a lawyer. My peers consistently have voted me as one of the "Best Lawyers in America" in Employment Law, among other prestigious awards.
I provide advice and recommendations on various legal subjects, including:
-- Employment contracts
-- Non-compete agreements
-- NDA's (non-disclosure agreements)
-- Sexual harassment
-- Discrimination & EEOC proceedings
-- Retaliation
-- Unfair wage claims
-- Hostile work environment
-- Wrongful termination
-- Severance agreements
-- Whistle-blower claims
-- Executive compensation
