Professional

About

I have more than 30 years of experience representing executives, business owners, private enterprises and small-to-midsize public companies as an advisor, counselor and advocate on matters relating to the employment relationship. Informed by years of experience with both routine and unusual employment relationships and workplace situations, I bring a pragmatic, realistic and results-oriented perspective to issues arising in the workplace. My primary practice involves the executive employment relationship. I represent executives, business owners and corporate boards on employment law issues. I have a wealth of experience drafting and enforcing executive employment agreements, equity agreements, codes of business conduct, non-compete/non-solicitation agreements, indemnification agreements, retention and change-in-control agreements, long-term incentive plans, bonus and commission plans, and transition and severance agreements. I also advise employers on a wide range of human resource matters. I enjoy serving as a sounding board and problem-solver for business owners and human resources representatives with difficult employee discipline issues, discharge decisions, non-compete disputes, whistleblower claims, employee theft investigations, substance abuse, sexual harassment and other workplace misconduct. I also help clients navigate the increasingly complex federal and state regulatory environment governing the workplace, ensuring they have implemented best practices with contracts, documentation, policies, procedures and practices.
