We focus on compliance, prevention & litigation avoidance by working with clients to identify areas of risk and implementing preventive best practices to minimize legal exposure. We provide our clients with practical, solution-based and cost effective legal counsel.
In addition, as an experienced employment law attorney who has counseled clients and litigated cases about alleged workplace misconduct, employers retain my services to conduct independent workplace investigations into claims of alleged harassment, discrimination and other work-related misconduct.
Likewise, as part of our comprehensive "best practices" approach to minimizing the risk of employment-related disputes and litigation, we conduct management and employee training workshops on a variety of employment law and HR-related issues. Because even the best litigation avoidance strategy cannot foreclose the possibility that employment-related disputes will arise, we also represent employers in employment litigation as well as in connection with government agency audits, investigations and inspections.
We provide our clients with practical, affordable and cost-effective legal counsel, including innovative fee options like flat-rate and fixed fee pricing. For example, as an alternative to the traditional hourly billing model, we offer a variety of fixed fee "Preventive Best Practices and Litigation Avoidance Protection Plans".
