Alchemy Law provides advising, training & defense for employers.
Employment law is complex, frequently changing, and affects everyone in your company. This is something you’re addressing every day, whether you notice it or not. Yet most companies only contact a lawyer after there has been a problem.
Minimizing liability begins at your company’s inception with upfront consulting to create a culture that keeps employees happy and encompases hiring, policy enforcement, discipline, and termination. Think about it in a holistic way: you’re setting the expectations between yourself and your employee, creating a healthy relationship where both parties can thrive.
Alchemy Law advises and represents employers in the following areas:
Avoiding legal liability starts with the hiring process. Establish hiring practices to help you hire the best candidate for long-term growth.
No one should be surprised! Create an employee handbook to set clear expectations and update your existing handbook to comply with new laws.
Stay up to speed by training employers on best practices for enforcing policies and administering legal requirements—including the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
Conduct internal audits of employment policies and practices to ensure compliance with state and federal law, including anti-discrimination and wage and hour laws;
Prepare strong employment agreements, including independent contractor agreements, non-compete agreements, non-disclosure agreements, bonus-retention agreements, offers of employment, and severance agreements
