We know our clients are in good hands when we refer them to Sue!
As insurance and benefits agents, we are trusted advisors managing our clients’ risk. When they come to us with questions about issues such as disciplinary actions, post-termination lawsuits, retaliation lawsuits, sexual harassment claims, and wage-and-hour disputes we are quick to refer Sue Bendavid. For our own firm, Sue advises us frequently on our own in-house issues. We’ve engaged her services for review of employment contracts and she has also drafted several pieces of important correspondence for us. She always “puts herself in our shoes” and makes recommendations based on that perspective. Each year we host an HR Law Update seminar for our clients. Sue is our go-to resource as a speaker for those events. She is always well-prepared and imparts the information in a clear and engaging manner. We refer Sue Bendavid with great trust and confidence, time and time again.
