Contracts and Agreements 35%

For new or departing employees, I draft, review and negotiate employment and separation agreements. For entrepreneurs, I put together smart and strong contracts regarding employees, independent contractors, partners, vendors, and clients.

Employment and Labor 35%

I help companies address critical employment issues involving contracts, strategy, and how to handle (and avoid) business disputes. I also work with new or departing employees who need to understand or negotiate employment and separation agreements.

35%
Lawsuits and Disputes 20%

I can help pursue or defend business, contract, and many other types of claims in state and federal courts.

Arbitration 10%

When parties agree to arbitrate their disputes, I can help navigate clients through those proceedings - which have their own set of less formal rules but still result in a binding decision.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
