Employment Contracts Protect the Rights of Employers and Employees

KO attorneys meticulously draft, review, and negotiate employment contracts for key executive, product and sales staff. When considering whether an employee merits an employment contract or separate employment agreement, a KO attorney will review compensation issues and competitive risk factors specific to the position.

An employment contract may include:

• Confidentiality agreements
• Non-compete agreements
• Executive compensation agreements
• Severance pay agreements

When an Employment Contract Has Been Violated

The firm takes a results-oriented approach to resolving breach of contract cases, attempting to achieve a fair outcome through cost-effective means such as negotiation, arbitration, or mediation. If these methods do not result in a satisfactory outcome, KO trial lawyers will prepare the case for court at the state or appeals court level.
