The Power of Good Legal Advice
Practical, Business-Minded Legal Guidance for Workplace Success
Navigating employment laws and Human Resources can be complex, but you don’t have to do it alone. I provide strategic, compliance-focused legal counsel to businesses and executives across North Carolina. Whether you're an employer seeking to minimize risk and maintain compliance, or a business executive needing guidance on your own employment agreements and workplace issues, I offer clear, effective solutions tailored to your needs.
For Businesses
I help small and mid-size employers stay compliant with federal and state employment laws, negotiate employment contracts, draft workplace policies and comprehensive handbooks, conduct compliance audits, respond to agency (EEOC) charges, and manage critical workplace issues like terminations, investigations, site closures, and reductions in force.
​
For Executives
I assist executives in protecting their individual interests by reviewing employment and severance agreements, navigating non-compete clauses and other restrictive covenants, and addressing workplace misconduct claims, including harassment, discrimination, and hostile work environments.
