Employment Disputes

Entrepreneurs, c-suite executives, and other professionals like you face complex challenges every day. The vision and ability it takes to seize opportunities, overcome obstacles, and advance your company’s interests are why you are highly valued – and highly compensated. But even the most sophisticated and accomplished individuals can face issues regarding their own careers and business relationships which lay beyond their expertise or experience. When employment and ownership disputes arise that threaten careers, livelihoods, and reputations, the employment law attorneys at Shlansky Law Group provide the seasoned representation which can help achieve positive outcomes and position our clients for future success.

High-Powered Representation for High-Level Executives and Owners

No matter the size of a company or the nature of the industry, business and employment relationships which were once full of promise can devolve into acrimony and conflict. Personalities clash, goals diverge, and simple misunderstandings become intractable disagreements. The decisions that employees and their companies make at these critical junctures can have immediate and long-term impacts on their respective futures.

At Shlansky Law Group, we work closely with our clients to develop and implement strategies optimally tailored to their unique goals and objectives. We know that litigation, while sometimes unavoidable, is rarely the best or only dispute resolution option. Our litigation acumen in the courtroom and administrative proceedings is complemented by a dispute resolution focus that allows us to find solutions which not only minimize costs and liabilities but also maintain positive employee relationships moving forward. We explore all avenues of negotiation, mediation, or arbitration in our efforts to obtain the best outcome for our clients.
