I am an independent consultant and project attorney with over a dozen years of experience in the labor and employment law field. My practice is built on the age-old belief that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." To this end, I strive to provide cost-effective advice and assistance to employers to help them achieve their business objectives while minimizing their exposure to employment-related claims and liabilities. I serve both large and small businesses and provide flexible arrangements on a project or continuing basis.
My experience includes:
Advice on employee hiring, discipline and discharge, wage and hour practices, and other workplace issues including equal employment opportunity, sexual harassment, leaves of absence, and employee relations matters.
Development, review and modification of employee handbooks and personnel policies and procedures.
Representation on employment discrimination matters before federal and state agencies including complaint investigations and preparation of responses.
Unemployment matters including representation at administrative hearings.
Negotiation, preparation and review of employment and severance agreements.
