Personnel and Operational Matters
D’Ambruoso Law is standing by to assist you with any of the dozens of legal-related operational matters that inevitably arise while operating a business. Though clichéd, it is indisputable that getting sound legal advice early in a process can prevent or mitigate potentially large and expensive or intractable issues down the road. As an example, a simple measure such as having an employee sign an assignment of intellectual property agreement can avoid tremendously costly disputes, or even the failure of a company sale transaction, years later. Among the many crucial issues that we can advise on are the following:
- Protection of intellectual property
- Executive and other employment contracts
- Consultant and independent contractor arrangements
- Personnel invention assignment, non-competition, and confidentiality agreements
- Assorted other employment issues such as employee handbooks and hiring and firing guidance (e.g., separation and release arrangements)
- Equity compensation schemes and awards
- The preparation and implementation of company policies, including Data Security, Website Privacy and Document Retention
