Employment Legal Questions and Answers
Employment
Employment Contract
California
What is fixed term employment contract?
I have been given a contract that says 'Fixed Term Employment Contract'. How is this different than a normal employment contract? Is there anything I need to consider before signing this?
Christopher M.
Generally a fix term employment contract differs from a genera employment contract in that it has an end date. For example, at-will contracts continue until you are fired or quit, while a fixed term contract only continues until the term expires. The main points to look at would be what they are classifying you as (employee vs contractor), the length of the term (so you know when the contract is up), and how to renew the contract or if there is an automatic renewal. It would also be good to double check the contract for termination clauses, as quitting may be more complicated under a fixed term contract. Ultimately, as with all contract matters it’s probably best to reach out to an attorney to review the document to get more specific answers to your concerns.

Employment Handbook
Washington
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 A.
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

Contract Termination Agreement
Florida
Review of severance agreement and decision to contest
I am 70 y/o and was laid-off after 3 1/2 years of my employment as a Medical Affairs Senior Liaiason at Lundbeck LLC as part of a company reoganization last week. The company has offered a severance package supposedly based on a Company "Severance Plan" they will make available on request. In the severance agreement, they have listed all of the employees were were considered for elimination with respective ages and which were retained vs eliminated - at least one other person in my age range was eliminated while one was retained - looks like they have covered their bases on issue of age discrimination. Just wondering based on my age and ability to gain comparable re-employment at this point in my life if there is a case for increase in compenstion irrespective of their standard "severance plan" that is in place.
Diane D.
You don't have to sign or accept the severance package. However, if you don't, they may not give you the severance package. If you need help with the review, let me know. Remember, if you file suit, you have the burden of proving your case by a preponderance of the evidence.

Physician Employment Agreement
Florida
Physician employment agreement termination clauses?
I am a physician who has been recently offered an employment agreement from a hospital. I am interested in understanding the termination clauses of the agreement, as I want to make sure that I am not at risk of being terminated without cause or without due process. I am also interested in understanding what my rights are in the case of a termination.
Diane D.
I would need to see your Employment Agreement to be able to answer this. I suggest you enter a work order in ContractsCounsel, and you can request me or have multiple attorneys bid on it.

Independent Contractor Agreement
California
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.
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!
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
