Ann-Marie Ahern

Ann-Marie worked with me to negotiate an executive severance package with a former employer. The largest component of the severance was a minority ownership phantom stock agreement where a current valuation of the company needed to be performed and rather vague initial job offer language needed to b...e clarified. Ann-Marie engaged her internal legal team and her wider network at critical points in this process to be sure that she understood the risks associated with each part of the agreement and the recommendation for working through them to bring me the best package possible. This was an emotional issue for me to work through and Ann-Marie did a great job of keeping me grounded and focused to ensure that I understood how the decisions we were making could potentially affect the outcome. In the end, she was able to negotiate a strong package for me. I would highly recommend Ann- Marie to anyone looking for a lawyer well versed in employment law and would particularly recommend her for executives working through difficult separation issues with their companies. She is on top of her game and always had my best interest at heart.

Ann-Marie helped me negotiate my entrance and my subsequent exit from a Texas company. Many of her recommendations paid handsome dividends in protecting my personal brand, as well as my financial position. I found Ann-Marie through a referral, and I too have referred her to others, which is the highe...st compliment I can pay.

It was apleasure working with Ann Marie Ahern. She was kinowledgeable and responsive to all of my needs in creating a wind down agreement with my former employer. I was a Principal of the company and had been there for 25 years when it was decided that my position was being eliminated. Ann Marie made... sure that my interests were protected in the negotiations.

I am pleased to introduce Ann-Marie Ahern to you. I have had the pleasure of working with her over the past few weeks on an employment contract. She is excellent. I was extremely impressed by the fact that she took time out of her vacation to deal with a problem for me. I heartily recommend her w...ithout reservations. I would definitely use her services a gain for any legal matter as well as trusting her judgement concerning referrals to other legal specialists. CER MD. MBA
