Discrimination and Sexual Harassment Claims on Behalf of Employees
For employees, we can advise you about your rights in cases involving discrimination, sexual harassment, whistleblower protection, employer retaliation, or wrongful termination. We also handle situations that concern unpaid overtime or sales commissions, family or medical leave, meal breaks, expense accounts, or other matters of dispute between workers and the companies that employ them. We are equally comfortable asserting your rights before an administrative agency or taking your claims to state or federal court.
Advice for Employers on State and Federal Employment Law
We also advise and represent employers. We can help you identify and manage potential litigation risks by working with you and your human resources personnel and supervisors. If you need general advice about compensation, hiring, discipline, firing, vacation, accommodations for disabilities, or other recurrent issues; or if you need help with a particular complaint or performance issue, our experience with employment law and its practical application in a wide variety of settings can help you avoid liability while maintaining and improving morale. We also draft employee handbooks and personnel policies that can help you avoid the risk of inconsistent approaches to common problems.
Executive Compensation, Confidentiality, and Severance Agreements
Our skill and experience with the negotiation and drafting of contracts can benefit employers or executives in the drafting of management compensation agreements, trade secret nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements, noncompete covenants, independent contractor agreements, hold-harmless agreements and even the preparation of severance agreements.
To learn more about our ability to help avoid and resolve employment law problems in such industries as construction, high technology, entertainment or real estate, or in the public sector, contact the Law Offices of Zachary D. Wechsler for a free initial consultation.
