One of the most traumatic things you'll ever go through is getting fired, and the stress is even worse if you have a wrongful termination case. I work to help you through this tough time.. My employment practice focuses on representing employees, including executives and partners, in all areas of employment law, from contract and severance negotiations for senior-level executives to protecting employee rights in discrimination and retaliation lawsuits under both federal and state law, non-compete agreements and wrongful termination claims. For nearly 20 years, I  represented employers in employment cases and I understand how employers evaluate these types of claims and am able to represent employees from a position of strength because of that knowledge.. In addition, I believe that the relationship between clients and their lawyers is a partnership where both parties collaborate to achieve the best result and that requires honest and frequent communication about each matter. Clients also deserve a lawyer that’s easily reachable. All of my clients have my cell phone number and know they can call anytime, including before and after “business hours.” I also return emails and telephone calls as close to immediately as possible. While litigation is always stressful, I find that consistent communication can help control that stress.. As to the substance of the law, I have litigated, in both state and federal courts, employment cases on behalf of both employers and employees regarding non-compete, non-solicitation and other contractual provisions. I have also represented clients in matters pertaining to franchise agreements and have defended small and medium-sized businesses against discrimination claims and other workplace allegations. I have also litigated many general business disputes on behalf of corporate clients.
