Employment Legal Questions and Answers

Employment Agreement

Iowa

Asked on Feb 17, 2022

My wife & I thought we had a contract from her employer to buy A dental practice after working for them for three years. We now were forced to sign a contract with the people that bought him out to continue working for them so they can get 10x EBITA when they sell shortly. Do we have a case for lost wages?

We moved from 30 miles away because we were told if we worked for 3 years we could buy it for $525,000. They now want $2.5M.

Melissa L.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

The first question is do you have a fully executed written contract? This is the first step to determine the terms and conditions such as your wages if there is a breach of contract, the dentist being able to assign the contract and if it can be modified.

Independent Contractor Agreement

California

Asked on Jun 30, 2022

How to make a contract to keep IC status ? We are getting audited by SF. Thank you!!

I just changed to independent contractor last year after all my dental friends advised me to do so. Now the office I work at is being audited so I’m wondering what I need to do in order to keep the IC? Thank you !

Gregory B.

Answered Jul 12, 2022

In general, contract terms can make someone an employee, but cannot ensure independent contractor status. Essentially, the contract can set out IC terms, but if those terms are not followed in practice, the contract itself can't fix that. Under California AB, there is an exemption for dentists from the strict "ABC" test, but dentists will still need to meet a number of other requirements that are often, in practice, difficult to meet. For example, they would have to be "open to the public" and actually performing the same of similar services for others - so working for a single dental office typically will not pass the test!

Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement

Florida

Asked on Aug 8, 2025

Version: Can an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement prevent me from discussing workplace harassment with others?

Version: Can an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement prevent me from discussing workplace harassment with friends, family, or other colleagues, as I have recently experienced harassment at my workplace and want to seek support and advice from trusted individuals outside of the company? I am concerned that the agreement I signed when I started my employment may restrict my ability to talk about these issues and potentially hinder my efforts to address and resolve the harassment situation.

Dimitry K.

Answered Aug 12, 2025

The answer here is strongly dependent on the language itself within the non-disclosure agreement. For example if there is language pertaining to disparagement, such terms often do limit the ability to communicate information with third parties, with some limitations such as law enforcement, federal agencies, or legal representation. Without reviewing your specific agreement it is hard to give a clear answer but it is a distinct possibility that the language can indeed restrict communication with third parties, especially if you received some manner of financial benefit from signing the agreement with the employer.

Severance agreement accounting treatment?

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
