Max K.
I am a business attorney and former in-house corporate attorney with more than a decade of experience helping companies navigate contracts, commercial relationships, day-to-day operations, and disputes. My practice includes drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements, licenses, leases, vendor and service agreements, and other business arrangements. Licensed in Nevada, California, New York, and Texas, I also hold an Executive MBA. My goal is to serve as practical, long-term outside counsel to small businesses and entrepreneurs that value responsiveness, sound judgment, and advice grounded in commercial realities - not merely technical legal answers. I handle disputes when necessary, but much of the value I bring lies in identifying issues early, preserving business relationships, and preventing avoidable conflicts. I do not bill separately for routine phone calls. I want clients to feel comfortable calling before a small concern becomes an expensive problem, and I am always happy to have an initial conversation to see if the fit is right for you. www.linkedin.com/in/maxkelner

Employee Rights
Employment Handbook
California
Can my employer legally enforce a new policy in the employment handbook without notifying or obtaining consent from employees?
I recently received an updated copy of the employment handbook at my workplace, which included a new policy that significantly changes the dress code requirements. However, I was not notified about this change beforehand, nor was I asked to provide any consent or agreement to the new policy. I am wondering if my employer has the legal right to enforce this policy without proper notification or obtaining consent from the employees.
Patrick W.
Yes. If you are in an at will state and your employment is not for a period of time, your continued employment and aware of the new policy is adequate grounds for enforcing a new policy as a basis for employment termination or employment discipline.
Employee Rights
Noncompete Agreement
California
i work for a employer from illinois ,however i am in california. My contract has non compete clause. will that be enforceable
My employer has placed me in a position thru another vendor. My employer contract with that vendor is ending. So vendor contacted me. However I am in contract with my employer for 1 year contract.
Christopher M.
Short answer: Probably no, non-compete and non-solicitation clauses are not usually enforceable on an employee in California. Long Answer: Regardless of the choice of law provision in your contract, if an enforcement action is brought against you in California, the California courts will dismiss it as it goes against the "public policy of the state" unless your employer can make a really compelling case. Most states respect the stated public policy of other states when deciding matters against their citizens, so even if the case was brought in another states courts your soon to be former employer would probably be powerless to get a judgement enforcing your non-compete.
Employee Rights
Employment Handbook
California
Can my employer change the policies in the employment handbook without notifying the employees?
I recently discovered that my employer made significant changes to the employment handbook, including policies regarding vacation time, sick leave, and disciplinary procedures, without notifying the employees or providing us with an updated version of the handbook. I am concerned about the legality of these changes and whether my employer can enforce them without proper notification and acknowledgment from the employees.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry this is happening to you. Generally, if you have a contract (the handbook or policy), then you are bound to those terms. If the employer changes the terms, they are allowed to; however, they need to give you some notice of the change in those specific terms in advance. This means that they should give you notice equal to the time between pay periods (e.g. two weeks). If they make a change, then it's not technically enforceable until you get proper notice. The notice does not need to be in writing. Good luck! Dolan
Employee Rights
Termination Letter
California
Can my employer terminate me without providing a written termination letter?
I recently received notice of termination from my employer, but I was not provided with a written termination letter outlining the reasons for my termination. I have heard that it is a legal requirement for employers to provide a written termination letter, and I am unsure about my rights in this situation. I would like to know if my employer can terminate me without providing a written termination letter and what implications this may have for my legal rights and potential legal recourse.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry that you got this notice of termination. The law doesn't require specifically that any notice be in writing. There is some misinformation online, but the Department of Labor and Industries has laid out a comment on this - https://www.dir.ca.gov/dlse/TerminationOfEmployment.pdf I'm am very sorry about this+ and best of luck.
