What This Covers

  • Offer letters, employment agreements, and independent contractor agreements
  • Employee handbooks and workplace policies
  • Non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreements
  • Equity and compensation arrangements for employees and advisors
  • Advising on classification issues — employee vs. independent contractor
  • Separation agreements, severance, and RIF documentation
  • Advising on HR-related legal risk and dispute avoidance

Why It Matters

  • Misclassification of workers is one of the most common and costly employment law mistakes
  • Poorly drafted offer letters and agreements create ambiguity that leads to disputes
  • Employment documentation that doesn't reflect actual practice is worse than having none at all

Who This Is For

  • Startups and growing companies building out their first team
  • Organizations updating employment agreements and policies to reflect current law
  • Companies navigating a reduction in force, restructuring, or difficult separation
