I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

Mark not only send out a record request to the address specified, but also sent out additional requests at other possible business addresses to ensure the request was received. As a result, I finally received the information I was looking for. The firm was very professional to work with."

Employment Legal Questions and Answers

Non-Competition Agreement

Kansas

Asked on Jun 18, 2025

Is my non-competition agreement enforceable?

I recently left my job at a technology company and signed a non-competition agreement when I started working there. I have been offered a new job opportunity with a competitor in the same industry, but I am unsure if the non-competition agreement I signed is enforceable. I want to know if I can legally take the new job without facing any legal consequences from my previous employer.

Christopher N.

Answered Jun 20, 2025

Generally the answers is: it depends. non-compete clauses are falling out of favor in most courts due to the growing restrictive nature of the clauses. It of course depends on your industry, state, and the uniqueness of your position. For example, a non-compete clause in the retail industry saying you cannot work for a competitor store as a customer service representative is likely unenforceable. If you are a highly skilled, trained, and educated wall street stock trader you may be prevented from working for a competitor for a period of time -- but even that is likely not enforcement -- it depends on alot of factors specific to you, the position, the industry, the state, and the acutal contract language. I highly recommend you consult with local employment lawyer in your state to get specific answers to your situation. Good luck.

Employment Handbook

Washington

Asked on Aug 10, 2023

Employment handbook employee rights?

I am an employee of a company and I recently received a copy of the Employment Handbook that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the employees. After reading through the handbook, I am concerned that some of the policies may not be in compliance with the law. I want to make sure that my rights as an employee are being respected and that I am fully aware of any legal obligations that I may have.

Merry K.

Answered Aug 18, 2023

Hello - I have been an attorney for nearly 38 years and specialize in employment law. It would be helpful to know what policies concern you, but be aware that federal and state law, and usually county and city as well, override any policies that are incorrect. Meanwhile, keep in mind that if you are an "at will" employee you have few, if any rights (other than certain ones protected by law); that sometimes employers don't keep up with updating their polices; and that HR is not your friend. If you feel your rights are not being respected, you may want to book a 30 or 60 minute consultation with a WA State Employment attorney. If you feel you have been or are being discriminated against because of a protected class status, you can also file discrimination complaints with the WA State Human Rights Commission and/or the EEOC. If you are not getting the wages you should be receiving, you can file a wage complaint with the state; you will be protected from retaliation for doing so. If you feel your working conditions are unsafe, you can file a complaint with the WA State equivalent of OSHA, and/or with OSHA (federal). Best wishes, Merry

Severance Agreement

New York

Asked on Jun 7, 2023

Updating a severance agreement?

I recently received a severance agreement from my employer and I am unsure if the terms are appropriate for my situation. I was laid off due to restructuring and I am looking to make sure that I am receiving the best possible terms from the agreement. I'm not sure if the agreement should be updated or if it is fair as it is currently written.

Erdal T.

Answered Jul 11, 2023

I would have to see the severance to see if the terms are fair.

Termination Letter

Arizona

Asked on Aug 28, 2025

Can I dispute the termination mentioned in my termination letter?

I recently received a termination letter from my employer stating that I am being let go due to alleged poor performance, but I strongly believe that this decision is unjustified and unfair. Throughout my employment, I consistently met or exceeded performance expectations and received positive feedback from both colleagues and clients. I would like to know if I have any grounds to dispute this termination and potentially seek legal recourse to protect my rights and reputation.

Richard C.

Answered Sep 5, 2025

You can reach out to the employer and contest the termination, citing what you’ve mentioned above. If discrimination is a possibility of why you were terminated, you may want to consider an EEOC complaint (note time is an important factor here). However, a demand letter may be the best first step to try and reach a satisfactory resolution for all parties.

Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement

New York

Asked on Nov 10, 2024

Can an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement prevent me from sharing my negative experiences with a company on social media?

I recently left my previous job at a company and signed an Employee Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) during my employment. While working there, I experienced a toxic work environment, witnessed unethical practices, and was subjected to discrimination. I want to share my experiences on social media to warn others and potentially seek support, but I'm concerned that the NDA I signed may prevent me from doing so. Can the NDA legally restrict me from sharing my negative experiences with the company on social media?

Danny J.

Answered Dec 22, 2024

Employee Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) can indeed impact your ability to share certain information, but their scope and enforceability can be complex: 1. Purpose of NDAs: Typically protect confidential business information, not personal experiences. 2. Scope: The specific language in your NDA determines what information is covered. 3. Public interest: Some courts may not enforce NDAs that conceal illegal or unethical practices. 4. Whistleblower protections: Certain laws may protect disclosures of wrongdoing. 5. Defamation risks: Even without an NDA, false statements could lead to legal issues. However, the specifics of your situation require careful analysis: - The exact terms of your NDA - Nature of the information you want to share - Applicable state and federal laws - Potential risks and consequences Given the complexities and potential legal implications, it would be prudent to have a legal professional review your specific NDA and circumstances. As an experienced employment law attorney, I could: 1. Analyze your NDA's terms and enforceability 2. Advise on your rights and potential risks 3. Explore legal options for addressing your concerns 4. Guide you on how to proceed safely Would you like to discuss your situation in detail and explore your options for sharing your experiences while minimizing legal risks?
