Employee Misconduct

Our employment attorneys can help you with any employee misconduct issues.  Employee misconduct should be taken seriously and needs to be investigated whenever there is an accusation. The employer should interview every person who is a witness to the misconduct and collect their signed statements. If the misconduct becomes the subject of litigation, the employer may have to use this evidence to support the claim. All too often, an employer alleges misconduct but has no documentation to support it. It is important that you protect yourself against accusations of retaliation, wrongful termination, discrimination, and more.

Discrimination and sexual harassment in the Workplace

Accusations of discrimination and sexual harassment in the workplace can impact a company greatly. Even if you, the employer, had nothing to do with the unlawful action, the business can be in jeopardy. Employers should be aware of the various ways to combat discrimination and sexual harassment.  For example, an employer should have an established, strong policy regarding the matters written in an employee handbook or policy manual. Another way is to have comprehensive employee training sessions.

If discrimination or sexual harassment does arise, it is important for the employer to do what it takes to handle the matter. Inaction is not an option. The burden is on the employer to make sure its employees comply with the policies it puts in place.  After all, a policy is worthless if it is not enforced by the employer. If you have an issue related to employee misconduct, terminating employees, sexual harassment, discrimination in the workplace, or any other employment law issue, you should speak with an experienced employment attorney.

Drafting Policy Manuals and employee handbooks

As an employer, it is a great idea to have an employee policy manual or handbook for your employees. An employee handbook will provide consistent and concise information that your employees need. It is important to have information regarding issues that can impact your business and what constitutes termination. The policy manual or handbook also provides information about what the employee can expect from you, the employer.

Severance Agreements and Restrictive Covenants

Our firm provides strategic, practical counsel in reviewing severance agreements and restrictive covenants, including non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality provisions. We analyze the enforceability of these terms under applicable law, identify overbroad or unfair restrictions, and advise on potential risks and opportunities before you sign. Where appropriate, we negotiate improved severance packages, compensation, and scope of restrictions to better protect your career mobility and financial interests. Whether you are an executive, professional, or business owner, we help you understand your rights, minimize exposure, and position you for your next step with confidence.
