"Ricardo was exceptionally attentive and detail-oriented while drafting our unconventional prenuptial agreement. Despite an extremely tight timeline, he delivered it right in time without compromising quality. He didn't simply drag and drop information in a template like our previous attorney did – instead, he wrote a custom agreement based on our goals. He took the time to truly listen to our needs and asked thoughtful, incisive follow-up questions that led to important revisions we had not previously anticipated, but were deeply grateful he identified. His rate was very reasonable, and he demonstrated outstanding integrity in transparently and accurately documenting his billable hours. We are sincerely grateful for his guidance during a stressful and emotionally charged time, and for ensuring we had a thoroughly drafted, legally sound, and high-quality agreement in place before our wedding. We can't recommend him enough!"

Dental Associate Contract

Washington

Asked on Aug 1, 2023

How to track dental associate contracts?

I am a dentist who is looking to hire a dental associate to help with my practice. I need to create a contract that outlines the terms and conditions of the associate's employment, but I want to make sure that I am tracking it properly. I want to make sure that I am following all the legal obligations related to the contract and that it is enforced properly.

Merry K.

Answered Aug 25, 2023

It's not necessary to write a contract - you can write a hiring letter with the terms and conditions, with a reminder that the employee is an "at will" employee. This may give you more freedom to discipline or terminate the employee than an employment contract would. However, you can also write this up as a contract. In either instance, do not violate any laws, such as the state and federal laws against discrimination (some counties and cities, such as King and Spokane counties, and Tacoma, Seattle, and possibly Spokane may have additional provisions); watch out for RCW 49.44.211, a 2022 law about nondisclosure and nondisparagement provisions; and, if you choose to include regular evaluations in your letter or contract, the most simple thing is to track those on a calender and remind yourself and your employee of the date a few weeks ahead of time. Some hiring letters and employment contracts provide for reimbursing the employer for the costs of training and/or any costs provided to the employee for moving expenses if the employee leaves before "X" amount of time.. Before hiring any new employee, do your best to conduct a national background check (not just state) and make sure it's extensive - prior performance at another job? Was the work history and education what they say it was? Any misdemeanors or felonies? What is their financial history and credit rating? Etc. Good luck on your hiring decisions.

Physician Employment Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Aug 8, 2023

Key terms in physician employment agreements?

I am a physician who is considering a job opportunity at a hospital, and I am in the process of negotiating employment terms. I am interested in understanding the key terms that should be included in a physician employment agreement so that I can make the best decisions for my career.

N'kia N.

Answered Sep 24, 2023

Generally, a physician employment agreement contains most of the same terms as any other employment agreement. However, some of the terms must be tailored to the role. Additionally, the agreement may contain terms that are specific to the physician role. Below are some key terms in physician employment agreements: License and Continuing Education - By law, to be a physician, an individual must obtain a professional license and then must earn continuing education credits to retain the license. Most physician employment agreements address these requirements, including such factors as whether the employer or the employee is responsible for the costs associated with compliance. Privacy and Confidentiality - Physicians have more privacy and confidentiality obligations than the typical employee. For example, a physician must comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA"). Physician employment agreements commonly address standards regarding patients' information, as well as the employers' proprietary information. Special Restrictions - Due to the nature of the physician role, employers might prohibit their physician employees from providing physician services elsewhere ("non-competition agreement"). Also, some might prohibit their physician employees from soliciting patients to receive physician services elsewhere ("non-solicitation agreement").   Special considerations - Further, as applicable, physician employment agreements will detail any special considerations for the role, such as stock options, relative value unit ("RVU") expectations, or volunteering, teaching, or scholarship requirements.

Contract for Employment

New York

Asked on Nov 22, 2024

Can I hire employees without a written employment contract?

I am a small business owner in the retail industry, and I am considering hiring employees to help me with the day-to-day operations of my store. While I understand the importance of having a written contract to establish the terms and conditions of employment, I am wondering if it is legally acceptable to hire employees without a written employment contract in place. I want to ensure that I am compliant with employment laws and protect both my business and the employees, but I am unsure if a written contract is necessary in this situation.

Danny J.

Answered Dec 22, 2024

While it's legally possible to hire employees without a written employment contract in most states, there are important considerations to keep in mind: 1. At-will employment: Most employment relationships in the U.S. are presumed to be "at-will," meaning either party can terminate the relationship with or without cause or notice. 2. State-specific requirements: Some states, like New York, require written notification of certain employment terms at the time of hiring. 3. Legal protections: A written contract can provide clarity and protection for both the employer and employee, defining terms such as job responsibilities, compensation, and grounds for termination. 4. Industry standards: For certain positions, especially high-level executives, written contracts are more common and often expected. 5. Compliance risks: Without a written contract, you may face challenges in proving compliance with labor laws or defending against potential claims. Given the complexities of employment law and the potential risks involved, it would be prudent to have a thorough legal review of your hiring practices. As an experienced employment law attorney, I could: 1. Assess your specific situation and industry requirements 2. Advise on the pros and cons of using written contracts for your business 3. Develop compliant hiring procedures and documentation 4. Ensure you're meeting all state and federal employment law requirements Would you like to discuss how we can create a legally sound hiring process that protects your business while remaining flexible for your needs?

Noncompete Agreement

New York

Asked on Jun 4, 2023

Noncompete agreement and industry restrictions?

I recently signed a Noncompete Agreement with my current employer. I am looking to explore other opportunities in my industry and want to know what restrictions my noncompete agreement might have on me. I am interested in understanding the limitations of the agreement and if there are any potential implications of taking a job in the same industry.

Danielle G.

Answered Jul 11, 2023

In order to ascertain the limitations and implications, you would need to review the specific language of the agreement. If the non-compete is very broad, it's possible it would not be enforceable. In New York, for a non-compete agreement to be enforceable, it must be for a reasonable period of time and limited geographic scope. It also must protect the employer's legitimate interest. For example, the restrictions must protect confidential information or specialized skills you gained while on the job, or some other legitimate interest. If the agreement goes beyond those limitations, a court could find the non-complete to be unreasonable and unenforceable, in whole or in part. As to what restrictions your specific non-compete imposes (and the reasonableness of those restrictions), you would need to look at the specific language in the agreement. If you are unsure about the limitations, you should seek advice of counsel to help decipher the extent it would apply to your industry in general, and the likelihood it would be enforceable in court.

Noncompete Agreement

Delaware

Asked on Dec 12, 2023

Employee contract, such as non compete/non solicit, could having this contract ever result in criminal/jail time?

If someone accuses you of fraud, because they believe you never had intended to honor your employment contract such as non-compete/non-solicit. Could this ever become a criminal case, resulting in criminal/jail time?

Matthew S.

Answered Dec 16, 2023

No, at worst, it is a breach of a contract which is a civil matter to be handled in civil court.
