Benjamin V.
My practice involves counseling businesses and individuals on a variety of contracts, such as business formation, technology/IP, real estate, leases, and even domestic relations agreements. Much of my practice is dedicated to litigation. As such, I approach contract and transactional work from a litigation perspective by advising clients of the risks involved in failing to develop proper contracts. It takes more than knowledge of the law to be a good lawyer. A good lawyer is honest and forthcoming with clients and has a counseling ethos. And, to me, a good lawyer stands in the shoes of the client when considering how to best serve that client. Whether my client is a business or an individual, I am passionate about helping my clients understand their rights, responsibilities, risks, and possibilities.

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.

Non-Competition Agreement
New Jersey
Profit sharing legal services across countrys legal?
My friend owns a Company in UK that shares a profit agreement to a limated liability company in Delaware, if they were to terminate there contract and the non competee they are stating i must shut down my buisiness for 6 months legal?
Angela Y.
The answer depends largely on two factors: 1) what documentation did you sign that had non-compete language and 2) whether the non-compete is enforceable. Many states are trending towards non-enforceability of non-competes, depending on how burdensome they are on the person.

Employment Termination Letter
Maryland
Can an employer terminate an employee without providing a reason?
Can an employer terminate an employee without providing a reason? I am currently working for a company where there have been rumors of layoffs, and I am concerned about the possibility of being terminated. While I have been a dedicated employee and have not received any warnings or disciplinary actions, I want to understand if the employer has the right to terminate me without giving any specific reason. I would like to know what legal protections I have in this situation and if there are any steps I can take to protect my rights as an employee.
Sara S.
Hi, The State of Maryland is an "at-will employment state". So yes, an employer can terminate an employee at anytime. Per the State of Maryland: "In Maryland, employees work "at the will" of their employers. This means, in the absence of an express contract, agreement or policy to the contrary, an employee may be hired or fired for almost any reason -- whether fair or not -- or for no reason at all. There are certain exceptions to this general rule which provide some protection to employees from illegal discrimination based on such categories as race, color, gender, national origin, religion, age, disability or marital status. Examples of other employment at-will exceptions include laws which protect employees from termination or retaliation for filing workers' compensation claims, for attempting to enforce rights to receive overtime or the minimum wage, for asserting rights to work in a safe and healthy workplace, for refusing to commit criminal acts, for reporting for jury duty or military service, or for being subject to a wage attachment for any one indebtedness. Terminating an employee for any of these specific reasons may constitute a violation under the applicable State or federal law." You can learn more by reviewing your employment contract, employee handbook and other documents with a qualified Maryland attorney.

Noncompete Agreement
Texas
Noncompete agreement and moonlighting?
I am an employee at a company that has recently asked me to sign a noncompete agreement. I am considering doing so, but I am concerned about whether or not the agreement would prevent me from taking on additional freelance work outside of my normal job. I am interested in moonlighting and need to know if a noncompete agreement would limit my ability to do so.
Curt L.
If you moonlighting work is in the same business and same market, it is almost certainly prohibited by a noncompete agreement.
Employee Rights
Employment Agreement
Texas
Can my employer change the terms of my employment agreement without my consent?
Can my employer unilaterally modify the terms of my employment agreement, specifically regarding my compensation and benefits, without obtaining my consent? I recently received a notification from my employer stating that they will be implementing changes to our employment agreements, including reducing our bonuses and altering our vacation policy. I am concerned about the legality of these changes and whether I have any rights or recourse in this situation.
Sarah T.
Hello! Thank you for submitting your question. Unfortunately, unless there’s a contract that controls the terms of the employment, an employer can generally change the terms of employment and benefits. In an at-will work environment, changes can typically be made to an employee handbook without notice to or approval from an employee. If there is an employment contract, typically, those terms cannot be changed without agreement from both parties.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
