Employment law, Litigation, Advice and Counsel

My clients are hardworking, well-meaning business owners who just want to do the right thing.  However, well-meaning businesses often get caught in a web of regulations and employee relations.  Your business is your baby.  You dreamed about it, saved for it, marketed it, and launched your idea hoping to make it run.  You need good employees for your business to flourish.  However, a bad employee could sink the entire ship.  Some wrongful termination cases, sexual harassment cases, and even wage and hour disputes can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to a business.  Even a small wage dispute could result in tens of thousands of dollars, which is like millions of dollars to a fledgling company.  I am here to help protect your baby.  You had the idea, the passion, and the commitment to let your company grow.  Let me help you protect it.
