"I had the pleasure of working with Nancy on a commercial lease for our Business, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From our initial consultation to the final signing, her professionalism, deep knowledge of real estate law, and attention to detail were outstanding. What impressed me most was the clear and consistent communication. She took the time to walk me through all clause of the lease on which we had concerns, answered all my questions promptly, and made sure I fully understood my rights and obligations and also suggested modification which would help me as a Tenant. Her expertise helped negotiate favorable terms and avoid potential pitfalls I wouldn’t have caught on my own. If you're looking for a real estate attorney who combines strong legal skills with excellent client service, I highly recommend Nancy. She made a potentially stressful process feel smooth and secure."

Physician Employment Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jul 5, 2023

Physician employment agreement confidentiality?

I have recently accepted a position as a physician at a new practice and I have been asked to sign an employment agreement. I am interested in understanding what type of confidentiality is required in this agreement, as I do not want to compromise any of the practice's confidential information. I would like to know what the agreement states about confidentiality and what the consequences are for any breach of confidentiality.

Mark D.

Answered Aug 4, 2023

This would require a review of the agreement. The typical cost for such a review is $750 but can cost more depending on the complexity of the issues involved.

Employee Separation Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jun 20, 2023

Employee separation agreement and COBRA benefits?

I recently left my job and I was given a severance package that included a Employee Separation Agreement. I am trying to understand what my rights are in regards to continuing my health insurance coverage under COBRA. I am trying to determine if my former employer will pay for any of my COBRA premiums and if I am eligible for any additional benefits under the Employee Separation Agreement.

Mark D.

Answered Aug 4, 2023

The opportunity to continue benefits after the termination of an employment relationship is required under COBRA if your employer has 20 or more employees. COBRA further requires that notice must be sent to former qualified employees with instructions on how the former employee can elect to participate in such benefits, the deadlines for making such an election, and the cost of making the election to continue benefits. Unless the separation agreement provides specifically for the payment of the COBRA premium, the cost of continuing benefits is going to be the sole responsibility of the former employee and those premiums must be made in the time periods specified.

Employment Agreement

Texas

Asked on Aug 17, 2025

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.

Answered Sep 6, 2025

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.

Employee Separation Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jul 15, 2023

Employee separation agreement non-compete clauses?

I recently left my job, and my former employer presented me with an Employee Separation Agreement, which includes a non-compete clause. I am concerned about the implications of signing such an agreement and would like to know what my rights are in regards to this clause. I am worried that signing this agreement could limit my future job prospects.

Brit B.

Answered Aug 9, 2023

Depending on the scope of the non-compete clause, it could substantially limit your future job prospects. Is the non-compete limited: in time? In industry? In geographical area? To certain competitors? You can certainly negotiate the scope of the clause with your former employer so that your ability to find a similar job is not too restricted. If your employer insists upon a non-compete that is too strict, you should consider whether the severance amount being offered is worth the loss of freedom for your future job hunt.

Noncompete Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jun 3, 2023

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.

Answered Jun 6, 2023

If you moonlighting work is in the same business and same market, it is almost certainly prohibited by a noncompete agreement.
