Protect Your Business and Prevent Disputes

Our employment law attorneys protect the rights of the business, as well as its employees. Your company can benefit from our comprehensive command of contract law and our proven skills in and out of court. We pride ourselves on our unfaltering commitment to our clients throughout the legal process. Our employment attorneys are dedicated to our clients and are accessible to you to answer questions as they arise about your employment contracts.

Creating Employee Handbooks

Our law firm can assist your business operation with design, composition and distribution of employee handbooks, which include internal complaint procedures that communicate goals, policies and procedures to your employees. The creation and implementation of an informative, binding employment manual can serve to avoid or quickly resolve contentious employment law disputes such as those centering on discrimination and sexual harassment.

What are Typical Provisions of Employment Agreements? What Should Be There?

Once you have a basic employee handbook in place, let the skills of the KGG employment lawyers create or review employment agreements that you can be confident in to protect you, your company and your employees alike. As your lawyers, our KGG employment law department will draft, review, interpret, analyze, negotiate and litigate in either the prosecution or defense of your employment contract.

Common provisions of employment contracts include, but are not limited to:

Non-Compete Agreements: Usually limited to a specific geographic area and time period, a non compete agreement protects you from having your employees poached by a rival company or from starting a company which will compete with you. We can help you write an enforceable agreement, or defend one if necessary. In order to adequately protect you and your company, it is important for this type of agreement to be specific and clear.
Confidentiality Agreements: Protect your company’s proprietary information, including your business procedures, plans, client lists and pricing agreements with suppliers. Generally, this will extend beyond the employment period and protect the employer after the employee no longer works for their company.
Termination Agreements and Severance Agreements: This is a standard clause which explains when/how employment can be terminated by either party without constituting a breach of the employment contract. This clause also lines out the terms for receiving severance pay if applicable.

After Termination: Is an Employee Bound by a Non Compete Agreement?

What happens after an employee is terminated? Is a non-compete agreement legal and enforceable? It depends on how it is worded. The law firm of Kantrowitz, Goldhamer, Graifman, Perlmutter & Carballo, P.C., has nearly four decades of extensive experience in the areas of review and preparation of severance agreements (including severance pay), employment agreements and litigation of restrictive covenants. KGG lawyers are versatile; we have written enough employment contracts to be able to review, negotiate or litigate on either side of such an agreement. We are also well versed in dealing with issues relating to the breach of employment contracts by either party.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. KGG Law, and Barry Kantrowitz in particular, set the bar high for what a thorough, practical, strategic, compassionate and smart lawyer can be. Everything about Barry's advice and representation was exemplary and the stress mitigation that resulted was invaluable. On top of that, the ultimate result Barry achieved was beyond what was reasonable to expect and we are forever grateful. Often, people say that you hire a lawyer to prevent a problem. Sometimes, unfortunately, you need an attorney to solve a problem and I could not recommend Barry and his firm any more highly in that regard.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dad had a great experience with this law firm. From the very beginning, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer our questions. They kept us informed throughout the entire process and made what could have been a very stressful situation much easier to handle. We truly appreciated their dedication, honesty, and hard work. Thanks to their support, my dad felt confident every step of the way. We are very grateful for everything they did and would highly recommend this firm to anyone looking for reliable legal representation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a wonderful experience working with Sam Smith. He was very responsive, thorough, and easy to work with from start to finish. He walked me through everything clearly and made what started as a very stressful situation for me into something completely manageable. I would not hesitate to recommend him and the firm!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kate Carballo is a dedicated, passionate, and creative attorney whom I had the pleasure to lecture with at a state trial lawyer's conference. Kate's lecture demonstrated how she uses her innovative and "out-of-the-box thinking" to achieve outstanding results for her injured clients. That Kate is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a civil trial attorney is a testament to her skills, experience and commitment to excellence.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Was referred to KGG law by a friend and could not have asked for better legal representation. They walked me through every step of the process after my accident and began every call with “ how are you feeling” which was just one example of how much they care about their clients. They handled my case very efficiently, professionally and courteously. My attorney Kate Carballo was a rock star! So clearly experienced, she consistently made me feel at ease with the process. Highly recommend

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with the team at KGG Law. While it was a traumatic time for our family, they made it very easy for us and explained all of our options. They even performed due diligence to make sure that after our settlement, there would be no further issues which I think is even more important than the settlement itself. Thank you!
