You’ve paid your dues… and your contract should reflect that.


Why Hire an Attorney For Employment-Related Contracts?

When starting a new job, an employee may be asked to sign a any number of contracts, from comprehensive employment contracts to non-compete agreements to confidentiality agreements. Employment-related contracts are not something to be taken lightly, as they can dramatically affect an employee’s current or future livelihood.

Many employment-related agreements are difficult to navigate without the assistance of an employment attorney who has experience in both the interpretations of such agreements and how they are likely to play out in various situations. In addition, the services of an attorney who is skilled and experienced in negotiating such contracts can often increase an employee’s compensation and benefits while minimizing the concessions the employee must when accepting a position and when he or she leaves the position.


Agreements and Contracts: Advising & Representing

Our attorneys advise and represent individuals and negotiate with employers with respect to a full range of employment-related contracts, including but not limited to:

  • Employment contracts
  • Non-competition agreements
  • Non-solicitation agreements
  • Confidentiality agreements

  • Executive compensation
  • Severance agreements
  • Mandatory arbitration
