Employment Disputes FAQ

Can I require employees to sign non-compete agreements?

In many cases, yes — but enforceability depends on your state’s laws and how the agreement is structured. We help draft and review non-competes that protect your business and comply with evolving regulations.

What should I do if my company receives an EEOC complaint?

Contact legal counsel immediately. We can help you respond promptly, preserve evidence, and develop a strategy for resolution while protecting your business interests. If companies do not comply with an EEOC investigation, they can be subpoenaed, which is additional frustration and complication for all parties.

How do I file an EEOC complaint?

Individuals can file job discrimination complaints with the EEOC without the help of an attorney, but we can help navigate the process. You’ll need to provide detailed information about your complaint so that we can determine whether it’s covered under EEOC laws.
