Stavros Law represents both employers and employees in a wide variety of employment matters. Representing both employees and employers gives our firm a competitive advantage over firms that focus solely on representing employers or employees. Our experience on both sides of employment disputes allows us to more easily anticipate likely outcomes, better understand the theories and expectations of the other party and efficiently resolve cases. Our experience also allows us to better counsel employees and employers on all aspects of the employment relationship.

Our work for employers has included the defense of employment lawsuits, providing counseling, advice and compliance guidance on a host of state and federal laws that regulate the employment relationship, including hiring and termination practices, proper interview and investigation techniques, compliance with wage and hour laws, harassment, retaliation and discrimination avoidance, sick, vacation, parental and other types of employee leave, drafting employee handbooks and conducting performance reviews.

Our work for employees is primarily limited to employment litigation and the review of employment contracts and ancillary agreements, including non-compete, non-solicitation and non-circumvention agreements.
