EMPLOYMENT LAW

Whether you’re an employer putting together your “dream team” or an entrepreneur navigating the gig economy, it is imperative that you understand exactly what you are signing up for when you agree to an employment contract. Otherwise, you could get lost in the excited promise of pay raises, advancement opportunities, and new challenges, and find yourself disappointed and taken advantage of. It’s important to take the time now to thoroughly understand that contract so you don’t wind up with regrets, later. Over and over, we have seen what can happen when employment contracts are glossed over or, worse yet, ignored altogether. That said, we have supported many clients in navigating disputes over their employment, and, if you feel you’re being treated unfairly, we can help you get the assistance you deserve.

Employment Law FAQs

Put simply, an employment contract is the written agreement between an employer and an employee that spells out the terms of their relationship. This agreement may illustrate the employee’s hourly rate or yearly salary. Health insurance, sick leave, and grounds for termination may also be illustrated in such an agreement. The contract could also include how much notice is required before the work relationship is terminated.

Your contract should also specify the time frame, any confidentiality agreements, severance payments, non-compete clauses, and more.
