Managing Your Relationship With Executives, Employees and Independent Contractors

Business owners face several obstacles and must manage several strategies with employees and independent contractors alike. There are numerous state and federal laws that govern the employment relationship. Compliance with this complex set of laws can be difficult without experienced counsel that can help you take appropriate and practical actions.

Our focus on the employment relationship allows us to offer highly effective counsel and advocacy on:

  • Employment law – From employee manuals and helping our clients create appropriate policies that foster productive and positive relations between you and your employees, we are there to help our clients with all aspects of the employer/employee relationship.
