The Firm has an extremely sophisticated employment litigation practice. It has represented both employees and employers in a wide variety of disputes including traditional breach of employment contract, non-solicitation, non-compete, trade secret/confidentiality, wrongful termination, terminations with or without cause, repayment of loans/notes and failure to pay salary/commissions. The Firm has also represented employers and employees in very high profile d discrimination cases based on sex, age, disability, race and gender. These disputes have been before federal and state courts as well as the various arbitration tribunals. Many of these matters have not only received national attentoin and recognition, but have involved some of the largest companies and high profile and wealthy celebrities, personalities and mega-billionaires. The strategy employed in each of these cases on the Plaintiff side is identical. Realizing that litigation is prohibitively expensive, the Firm encourages notifying the company in advance of filing an action in an attempt to resolve the matter prior to filing a SUmmons and Complaint. It has tremendous success in so doing. When it is unable to amicably resolve such matters prior to filing, it then engages in aggressive, serious litigation, letting the company know that the matter will be extremely expensive with great risk. On the company side the Firm similarly attempts to resolve the dispute effficiently and effectively. In the overwhelming majority of its representations, the Firm is successful in resolving the matter in the early stages. However, as its adversaries are well aware, it is willing to go the distance should it need to. The decision on whether to settle, of course, is always that of the client.

Along with its employment litigation practice, the firm also counsels corporate and individual clients in drafting, negotiating and finalizing employment, post-employment and severance agreements. It also drafts, negotiates and finalizes agreements that relate to specific issues including change of control, golden parachutes, ocnfidentiality, non-solicitation and consulting agreements.
